Rebecca - by someone.

Heard all the older women in the staff room clucking about it the other day, apparently 'it's a classic' and they couldn't believe I hadn't read it!

Wherefore art thou, Romeo? Funny little capybabra. Small and brown, with fur. Woohaaay. Small and brown with fur. Wherefore art thou, Romeo?

No, was it with todays? I just downloaded it from the Gutenberg Press web-site... An actual book would make life a lot easier.



Did you not take that of me when I was giving away all those books or did I decide to keep it as it's a classic book I've never read but should really.

Other than that I've never read any Dickens. I'd like to read a Christmas Carol. I might this Christmas actually.

I've tried (and failed) to read Stephen Hawkings' `A brief history of Time` Too heavy going for me. Want to read War and Peace too.

This is a modern classic, but I can recommend to all of you that you read Shantaram by Gregory David Roberts. Quite Simply, the best book I've ever read



you do realise that Gregory Roberts pretty much made the whole thing up, don't you?

Life is far too important to be taken seriously

The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle

A timeless classic that is just as relevant now as it was when it was first written. I'm not sure why I keep letting this masterpiece pass me by, although I think it is a piece that you have to work up to



I love that book so much.

No you kept Dracula.

I really enjoyed A Christmas Carol when I read it about 10 years ago.
