We have two little libraries on our 6th-12th grade campus. It was a senior project many years ago but still going strong. Seeing their colorful patterns and well-tousled books makes me smile. They are used and loved. My #BeautyBreak for today 😊
pick“The illustrations are simple but full of humor as the animals take on characteristics of humans and contemporary society (e.g. eating in an upscale restaurant, sitting in a classroom, visiting a museum complete with paintings of mice in the medieval wedding portrait by Jan van Eyck, and gazelles portraying The Kiss by Gustav Klimt).”

Popped over to beautiful Bruny Island for a couple of nights. Surprised to see so many tourists in the middle of winter.
They have 6 little libraries on the island, made by the Men's Shed. I've visited 5 and will swing by no.6 on the way to the ferry.

pickI finished this tonight sitting on the back patio, listening to the birds, and enjoying our little slice of nature. I admire Bonhoeffer and there‘s a lot of wisdom in this slim book. His German idiosyncrasies do come through, as when he said “we should train ourselves to set apart for it a regular hour for [meditation] as we do for every other service we perform. This is not ‘legalism‘; it is orderliness and fidelity.” But much here is universal.
