 World Culture Day 

My New Year's Reading Resolution was to read 100 books by May 1.  I almost made it, reading 92 children's books in four months.  Not not too bad, but I want to set my goal for summer reading even higher.  Curious about what I read?  click here.   If you're interested in tracking your reading,  join our Sligo Creek Group on LibraryThing.
