My book messenger

I've been thoroughly enjoying The Dark is Rising series by Susan Cooper. Some of the books have been less than simple to track down, and I did some fancy maneuvering to get a hold of the third book, Greenwitch. It took a little time.

It looked like I was facing the same problem with the fourth book. I was growing impatient.

Elizabeth was taking an armful of books back to her school library, and in passing, I said, "See if you can snag The Grey King by Susan Cooper."

Guess what she came home with?



What a dear! I honestly didn't expect her to remember...I only mentioned it briefly.

I've already started the book, and I love it. But I wish I was fluent in Welsh.
