Book Quotes!
Okay, here's my...
Okay, here's my first book quote:
"Only two hours," she sighed. "That will be half past one; Mother will be at Cousin Ann's, the children at home will have had their dinner, and Hannah cleared all away. I have some lunch, because Mother said it would be a bad beginning to get to the brick house hungry and have Aunt Mirandy have to get me something to eat the first thing.-It's a good growing day, isn't it?"
First one to guess the book gets to post the next quote! Good luck! If no one guesses it by the 20th, I'll post another quote.

Here's a quote:
A Horse! A Horse! My kingdom for a horse!
It's from Shakesphere; guess which play.

I haven't read Shakespeare, yet I've heard of many plays. I have added him to my list of books to read...

It's from Rebecca Of Sunny Brook Farms, isn't it.
Here's mine: "The book you are holding in your two hands--assuming that you are, in fact, holding this book, and that you have only two hands--is one of two books in the world that will show you the difference between the word "nervous" and the word "anxious."
If none of you can guess it I'll post the answer.

One of the Secret Series? The Mysterious Benedict Society? One of the Series of "Unfortunate Events?
(October 16, 2011 - 10:30 am)
I'm pretty sure it's not the Secret Series, but it might be one of the others...

Series of Unfortunate Events. That has Lemony Snicket written all over it. I believe it's the one where they first meet the twins. It's the something Academy.
