I have a set of 1928 Encyclopaedia Britannica. They are in very good condition, for century-old books. I like to read through them when I have a few minutes, rather than reading a more involved narrative for such a short time. I have learned a great deal from them. I have often left the volumes lying about, on the dining table for instance. They have not suffered injury.
Yesterday, however, I came home to find this.
The volume had been on the table and closed, but someone flipped open the back cover and tore the last page completely out of the book. I don’t know who it was, but I have my suspicions.
I have strong suspicions.
I have very strong suspicions.
Wha oh, Millie!
ReplyDeleteOh no! Even though it wasn't done maliciously it is upsetting to have an old and cherished book damaged.
ReplyDeleteValkyrie. I see the facial coloring on her. But that is a look of innocence. I'm sure she is pointing to the boys, Moxy and Brazil.
