WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Welcome to Bookcrossing.
This was still on the Children's Buffet Table last night, so the child within me took it and enjoyed enormously. The imagination of that Dahl chap is so delightful and he has a way with words.There were three giraffes in this convention. I don't know if they were the Geraneous variety, but perhaps you can tell. Here is one of them.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Will be released during the Morse Walk. After all the Pelly was very good at catching thieves.Edit: Pelly was caught by Annelis here in the middle.
And I was very good at catching books in Oxford! But luckily I got home with fewer books than I travelled to Oxford. I am afraid that can't be said about all the participants. Unluckily though I accidentally packed all my readings in mine and husbands suitcases and had to buy a new book at Heathrow. It turned out to be quite a lovely book: http://www.bookcrossing.com/journal/13297809/

While in London I read two books by Roald Dahl: This book and Matilda. This book is for younger children than the other one. I would like to find a new reader for book ratrher than to release it in wild. Let's see if it will succeed.
I took the book to the meet-up in Kerava.
Happy reading!

Thanks for this souvenir from Oxford Convention, I gladly took it with me and also Matilda.
I mark this available and will read it before releasing it to the next reader.
This was a delight. I like the rhymes Dahl writes. And his imagination, as kirjakko said. A really quick-read.
"We use water and soap
Plus some kindness and hope,
But we never use ladders, not we.
Who needs ladders at all
When you're thirty feet tall?
Not Giraffe, and not Pelly! Not me!"

Released in a meeting of local book-crossers. Happy reading!
I got this book in a meeting at Helsinki. I don´t read english very well, but I thought this might be an easy book to read.
