A reading nook in Grey Towers- the summer home of Gifford Pinchot, a two-time governor of our state and the man credited with creating the National Park Service. I wish I had a room filled with books like this!
Thank you Dorre, Diana, Issi, Hannah, Kathy, Brigette, Vincent, Babs, Jo, Katy, Barb, Gloria and KV.
@onewing I remember your bookshelves- I'm jealous of them too! haha
@kvphoto I had hoped to become a children's librarian but life didn't work out that way- I did however, volunteer as a children's librarian for a private school in Paterson NJ while my sons were students there. It helped lower their tuition and I pretty much built that library up from scratch with donations from other school libraries when they cleaned their shelves.
We have a houseful of books as you can see from the link

But ours don't look as cosy as this picture.

Thank you Carole and Kathy! There was a wide variety of subject matter but predominantly nature oriented.
Thank you Corinne and Kathy! Too bad we couldn't try it out- I might not have left that afternoon!
Thank you Harry and Vesna!
