This past week I volunteered at the school book fair. It's always fun to help the kids pick out books. I was pleasantly surprised to see 2 books by my favorite author when I was a young girl. Judy Blume. It's amazing that her books are still around. I know I loved them.
I always feel so badly for the kids that don't have any money to get books. Why do parents not give them money?? It's not like they are buying candy bars. They are buying books!! I'll never understand it. :( And no, none of these kids come from underprivledged families where they couldn't spare $4-$5 for a book. Not when these kids are wearing the latest fashions, wearing Uggs and carrying Coach bags~~
Three favorite books among the preteen set: Eggs, Diary of a Wimpy Kid and Coke or Pepsi. I almost got run over by some 10-11 year olds trying to get to these books before they were all gone! :)
