This is not an ordinary book: it's a BookCrossing book! BookCrossing books are world travelers - they like to have adventures and make new friends...and every once in a while they even write home to say what they've been doing.

From a rummage sale at Manoa Valley Church.

Reading about Hank & Midge's adventures is a lot of fun.

I'll count this as my New Jersey read (23/51) for the 2019 version of NancyNova's US States reading challenge.

I love the Robert McCloskey illustrations.

Sunday, May 12, 2019: left in the lobby at the Moana (which is now a Westin, not a Sheraton) under a very shiny mailbox. (Larger photo here.)

Released for GoryDetails's April Showers/May Flowers challenge.

I'm so glad you've found this book! Won't you make a journal entry so the previous readers know that it's safe with you?

How and where did you find the book? What did you think of it? What are you going to do with it next?

This is now your book, for you to do with as you please: keep it, pass it to a friend, or maybe even leave it where someone else can find it!

If you've ever wondered where your books go after they leave your hands, join BookCrossing and you may find out: you'll be able to follow your books as new readers make journal entries - sometimes from surprisingly far-flung locations.
