Photo-a-Day - May: Day 20: Something Without Which I Cannot Live

Photo-a-Day - May: Day 20: Something Without Which I Cannot Live
BOOKS!!! Aside from the basics of food, water, air, and, yes, eventually, I could survive without my daily can of Coca-Cola (no ice), I consider books to be essential.  Whether in print, or e-book, or audiobook, books teach me, enlighten me, raise my spirits, take me to foreign lands, different times, scare me, puzzle me, charm me, romance me, and so much more.  Books enrich my life in so many ways. 

The greatest gift a parent can give a child is the love of reading and appreciate for books.  Thank you to my parents and grandparents for passing that legacy on to me.

So sing with me, to the tune of "Food, Glorious Food" from Oliver.  Ready?

Books, glorious books, non-fiction and mystery.
Relax, take a look, plays, romance and history.
Hard covers and paperbacks, all in mint condition.
Browse carefully through the stacks:  first edition!

Books, glorious books, try a new author today.
Time-travel or cook, adventures take you away.
e-readers or audio, print copies abound,
Oh, books, wonderful books, marvelous books, magical books,
fabulous books, beautiful books,
GLORIOUS BOOKS!!!!!
