Hello gorgeous library guests
and
Welcome to the Mewton-Clawson Library at BBHQ
Thank mew for joining me in the stacks again today; and it's been quite a slow and sedate week at BBHQ, so much in fact that I even rearranged a couple of shelves in the library, and mew'll be seeing my discovery further down the post.
So anyhoo, after the shelf-shuffle, I decided to check out the BBHQ picture archives, and I found this fabulous foto from July 2017, and what a lovely summer that was, endless days of deliciously warm temperatures.
Oh, don't forget to check out the Fast, Furry and Dangerous rerun; we shared part 3 yesterday just in case mew missed it. Mew know I love rereading the adventures, they're just so exciting, and it was like yesterday when it all happened for real here at BBHQ!
And it was actually my idea to share this rerun, so I do hope mew're all enjoying it. I keep going on at the P.A. to get it turned into a book, though she just smiles, nods and says she's wurking on it.
Ah well, one day it'll happen. Let's hope it's not too long though.
Today the P.A. is also joining in Friday Fill-ins Blog Hop with the pawesome 15 & Meowing and Four-Legged Furballs.
1. I wish I knew how to play _________.
2. If offered a free trip to space, I would _________.
3. _________ is the most exciting thing in my life right now.
4. I could give a long lecture on the topic of _________.
The P.A.'s answers are...
1. I wish I knew how to play chess, it's one game I really regret not learning as a child. And throughout my adult-ish-hood I've often said to myself, you should really teach yourself to play, and maybe one day I'll be in the right frame of mind too.
2. If offered a free trip to space, I would definitely go; to explore new frontiers though avoiding all egg-laying, chest-bursting aliens! LOL
3. Gardening and the big Spring clean-up is the most exciting thing in my life right now.
4. I could give a long lecture on the topic of crystals and gemstones, chakra healing and lots of things metaphysical. Or sewing, dressmaking, pattern cutting and design. Gardening, growing plants and flowers etc, in fact, I could gab about quite a few useful topics! LOL
Let's see what I've got to show mew this time; during my little shelf-shuffle in the library, I came across this epic read and just had to share it again today!
This week's top book pick is...
Mewton-Clawson Library Copy
Here's a little snippet of the book blurb:
I Am Not a Skunk is Ellen Pilch's second picture book. It is about a homeless kitty excited to find a family, but must first convince them she is not a skunk. It is loosely based on how the author's cat, Emmy came to live with her.
**Review ReRun**
I reviewed Auwnty Ellen's furst book called Prancie's Prayer in October 2018, which I heartily recommend, and I was absolutely delighted to get a surprise copy of; I Am Not A Skunk in the post.
This is such a cute book fur youngsters and adults alike, a great little story, and it has NO SKUNKS in it whatsoeffur! MOL
The illustrations are amazing and really do enhance the tale, but as mew know, I don't do spoilers here, though I will say this; I think this is purrfect to teach younger readers compassion and kindness towards anipals, and I would recommend it without hesitation, and in my humble opinion it would make a purrfect gift fur any cat lover too.
Update 2021 - I do love this book as much today as I did in my original review from May 2019, and I really enjoyed sitting and reading it again. It brought me oodles of joy! And if mew're looking for a gift, this is just purrfect.
Thank mew Auwnty Ellen, mew are epic, and I hope mew've got a new book coming out soon!

Until next time...
