Books


These are the pictures that were suppose to go with the post LARGE PRINT BOOKS. I found out why my pictures wouldn't load - it wasn't Bloggers fought at all. I have a Juno Turbo on my internet and it has a pop up protector that thinks when I click on the photo that it is a pop up and blocks it. Now all I have to do is turn off the Turbo before I go to my blog. I was getting very frustrated with the whole thing till I figured out what was happening. I am going to try and post a little more often then I have been doing.

LARGE PRINT BOOKS

Well I had a couple of pictures to add to this post but Blogger won't let me load them up.

I have discovered Large Print Books. At my age my eyes aren't what they used to be and as much as I read discovering the Large Print section of the library was a pleasant surprise. I have to give my daughter credit for steering me to that section.

I can get on line to my county library system and order large print books from other libraries. There are a lot of them out there.

If I could have posted the pictures you would have seen that three of the books were by Nora Roberts. I had always passed over her books till my daughter got me to reading Nora Roberts works and now I am working my way through all of her books I can find. I have a list that I mark off what I have read so I won't order the same book when I am on line to the library.

Lost

My daughter and I among friends too enjoy the TV show Lost. My daughter works in a library and has built a huge Lost display. A Lost fan had made a list of all the books that were on the show which inspired my daughter to build the display. You can see it here: http://staffweb.maconstate.edu/library/blog/

There are also more pictures on a flicker account you can access from the blog.
