The kindle just gives people an option on a different way to read. It in no way replaces books or family heirloom books. I have some of those that I read to my kids, too.<br />S.P.

I'm quite glad of the e-revolution though, because we have no more room. We could double stack them, but that feels like burying books. We do have some pictures and ornaments the kids made in front of the books.Nick Wilfordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03841776353790635132noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-83528601653366510.post-73940218712401557202015-06-17T12:35:31.000-04:002015-06-17T12:35:31.000-04:00My shelves are over-stuffed and bowing.

Besides, books are great wall insulation. I need to smell the paper when I read, and know it's a renewable resource.Geo.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16221314320558128986noreply@blogger.com
