The Library by Sarah Stewart

The Library by Sarah Stewart - 36 pages

Elizabeth Brown learned to read early and loved it.  When she went off to college, she took a steamer trunk full of books with her and opened a lending library in her room.  She even preferred a book to a date or being out with friends.  After graduating, she settled down as a tutor and spent her money on more books.  Soon she had a houseful of books and read while running errands.  when she had nowhere left to store books, you'll be surprised at what she did.

I liked this story and saw quite a few parallels to my own life, but I'll never have as many books as she!
