One of many books that I recently acquired for the purposes of sharing it with others. This came from an early morning excursion to The Book Thing of Baltimore for the upcoming book festivals.

This book is one of many being passed along to potential readers at the 2023 Kensington Day of the Book Festival by members of BookCrossing in Washington DC (BCinDC).

Any future reader or recipient of this book is encouraged to leave a journal entry here on the BookCrossing site to let prior readers know the fate of the book. You can make an anonymous entry without joining the BookCrossing movement, but if you are interested in joining, it is a free and spam-free community where your contact information is not shared with others. Best of all, members receive private messages via e-mail from books like this one when those books are journaled, allowing for long-term relationships between books and readers.

This book was leftover from the last book festival. It's going to have one more chance at going home with book festival attendees at the Gaithersburg Book Festival.

Welcome to BookCrossing!

Making a journal entry here lets me know the book has been found and is safe in your hands. The book is yours now! Read it, give it to a friend, pass it on, or keep it forever--it's your choice.

If you pass it on to someone or leave it "in the wild" for someone else to find, please make another journal entry or release notes here to explain that it's travelling to find another home.

You can remain anonymous on the website or join BookCrossing. Joining is free, safe, and spam free and you'll get an e-mail every time a new person finds this book. You'll be able to watch it move around and find out what other readers thought of it.

I hope you enjoy the book. Happy reading!

I was unable to attend this year's Gaithersburg Book Festival but am happy to take in some of the leftovers. I will do my best to find them new homes including placement at many local Little Free Libraries that I happen upon.

Taking the opportunity to share this book while visiting local Little Free Libraries.
