Free Books at the County Fair

Last week was the county fair where my grandson showed his goats. He has two, Rocky and Bucky. Last year he came in 1st place with them, but this year only 3rd with one and nothing with the other so he was disappointed. But it was a fun day for both the grandbabies (and me too).

While there, the local library was giving away free discarded books so I picked up a couple. One of them being Jewel by Bret Lott (one of Oprah's book club selections). It was a great read. Take in mind if you would decide to read, it is set in the 40's era so some of the language might be offensive by today's terms, but nonetheless, a nice book about a family and a mother's devoted love of her child and children.
