Movies, TV, video games...these just don't cut it for me. I like them well enough, but it's next to impossible to cuddle up in bed with them.<BR/><BR/>Susan: I cracked open Emily Climbs as soon as I got in bed, telling my husband I'd only read one chapter. Three chapters later... Also, I went to P.E.I as a child, while living in Maine, and thought it was splendid and beautiful. I bet I would enjoy reading that paper...Amber Loughhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12374291005610549082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7435089138132999855.post-53979968436465566602008-06-01T11:06:00.000-04:002008-06-01T11:06:00.000-04:00Hmm.

I’m going to Europe next week , maybe I can find the book there. :) <BR/>I feel sorry for those who don’t read books: with no imaginativeness, with lacklustre eyes.Valhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04744722578930912775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7435089138132999855.post-58176421421630786932008-06-01T10:33:00.000-04:002008-06-01T10:33:00.000-04:00Hi Amber, this is Susan Meyer.

Do you know there are two more books in the series? Her comments in the later books on the way publishers decline manuscripts (and on the dumb comments reviewers can make--one of them writes that no apple trees grow on Prince Edward Island, because it is a bare, sandy strip!) sound very much like what we encounter in the present day! I'm actually going to give a paper at a literary conference on L. M. Montgomery in PEI in June. I went to one 2 years ago and gave a paper on art, fresh air, and tuberculosis in the Emily books (which was just published in a book called something like Storm and Conflict in L. M. Montgomery, ed. Jean Mitchell)--you might enjoy reading it. Well, maybe. But I'm *sure* you will enjoy reading the next two Emily books!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
