Three Muses - Book

Books are nearly always among the gifts in our family at Christmas time.   An afternoon spent in a library is a special time for me.   I will always be grateful to my teacher from Grades 1 through 7, who instilled in me a fascination with the written word..... and I'll always be grateful to my father, who gifted me with an impish sense of humor.   I put both to use here.  I have to admit I had a bit of fun fashioning this book, naming it and giving the author an unlikely name.   I hope you enjoy my little play on words!

Marie has just kindly pointed out to me I've posted this on Monday night instead of Tuesday night.  Yikes!   My daughter and grandson are visiting and things are a bit chaotic at my house.  Coupled with the holiday, I am totally out of sync with what day it is!    I know you all will catch up with me sooner or later!
