I'm going to join in the Children's Classics Mystery Challenge at 5 Minutes for Books. I'm not sure what I'm going to read, but I think Nancy Drew and I need to meet again. I remember meeting Trixie Belden, but not Nancy. However, I am sure I have. How could I not? Do you remember Encyclopedia Brown? He and I were well acquainted when I was a kid.
There is a used book store in town (that is associated with the library). Unfortunately, it's not opened until 11 am. It makes it hard to get there with M coming home from school around 11:30-11:45, and needing lunch right away. Oh, and E still takes a morning nap. I hope to get there this week and check out their selection. Normally I don't buy many books, but I think classics can only do our family's library good!

Oh, I loved Encyclopedia Brown AND Trixie Belden!
I really need to visit our used bookstore to see what I can find. The library gave me a good start on Encyclopedia Brown, but I'd love to look more. But yes -- it IS hard to get there with little ones.
