I found nice kids' books from the recycling centre today! This will be added to my permanent collection.

My review of this book can be found here.

I am moving abroad for at least a few years, and sadly, I can't take my books with me. I'll leave a bunch of Newbery medal winners to reside with Annelis, because I know she likes to read Newbery books. She can return the books to me at some point, but there's no hurry! This way someone will read these books, instead of them just sitting in a storage, which is good. Annelis is also welcome to circulate them locally or in some kind of a book ring, but I would like to get the books back eventually. Thanks!

The book came to Kerava for a visit and I am going to read it before Harmaja gets back from abrod. Thanks for the possibility!

Came to our home together with lots of other books, to be released at some later time (and for some to be read here)

This was a nice read, thanks for sharing.

Journal Entry 8 by CandyDarling at Helsinki, Uusimaa / Nyland Finland on Friday, April 27, 2018
I just finished the book, and was surprised to find out that it was based on a true story, of a woman who lived alone on San Nicolas Island for 18 years after being accidentally left there when the rest of her tribe sailed away.

I liked the book a lot, it was sad and wonderful at the same time.
