REDNESDAY


Hi everyone! Hope you've all had a good week. Is everyone out of school yet? Becky had her last day on Monday, but I still have to get up for Jade for a few more days. My (new) camera is wonky, so I can't share any photos; but, I scanned a book that I purchased recently.

This is "Trudy Phillips, New Girl", a Whitman book from 1953. I haven't read it yet, but it's got a great cover!
I like how it has a bulletin-board theme for each chapter heading, and each one is different, too!

    I have featured several vintage books lately. I think some of them are neater than the new.

    Hi!
    I'm new to your party and will be sharing some cacti with red flowers.

    I love the homey cuteness of your blog and will snoop around a bit if you don't mind, lol.

    Thanks for hosting this fun Party!

    What a sweet book! I never had to be the New Girl in school. I think that was good for me. Hope your camera gets working soon, or even a new one! But the scanner works well! My son is out of school, but my daughter is taking an extra math class for summer! Means a lot of driving for me, but that is okay! I am so happy I have something I can link to your party this week!
    Thanks for hosting this great party!
    Blessings,
    Susie

    Oh I so would have bought that book, too! I buy books like that and then let my grangirl borrow them. It's fun to have someone to share books with! ♥

    Sue, I love old books. I'm reading 'The Secret at the Gatehouse' by Carolyn Keene, published in 1940. It is from the Dana Girls mystery collection. I think this might be before the Nancy Drew series..Great Book...Happy Rednesday !

    Hi Sue,
    Love your vintage book - adore the illustration of the bulletin board with the doggies on it!

    My husband has seven more days until summer vacation ... yes, I'm counting the days until we can have fun! ;)

    Happy Rednesday to you!
