"I love that book!"

When our box of books from Barefoot Books arrived, my boys were so excited. It was like Christmas all over again. As soon as I pulled out The Gigantic Turnip, hands down this book got voted to be the first one read. Brace yourselves for some rollin around kinda laughter as you read through the tale of a farmers enormous turnip & his quest in removing it from the ground. Full of peculiar illustrations & accumulating friends, by the end of the book the whole family will be reading along. Not to mention the laughter that will take place. But of course, it was the kids rolling around laughing, not me:)


It's a great time to stop by, check out the sales section and save up to 80% off! Plus we're giving away another one of our favorites, Alligator Alphabet to one of our readers!

A true friend is not a friend that you can see and know that they are there without a doubt. A true friend is a friend you truly have faith in without a doubt. True friendship is when you don’t see that friend but you know that they are there and you learn to trust and believe in them…that one day you will see them without a doubt! I wa t everyone to feel this way…I WILL make everyone feel this way. Runescape gave me that chance…to know what true friendship really is. Together, we flew in the sky , over the ocean , in a dream that lasted forever! With unbroken bonds of the new existence. I DECLARE THESE BONDS UNBROKEN. I will fly with them forever in a dream that turns to the new reality.I am a blinding light made new, emptied of all preexisting darkness, and I will guide those in the darkness.Believe me..when I say I will do something, I will most likely do it eventually. I live to be the very best, not fine, not decent, good, amazing or outstanding. I live to be the very best.I burned fires of infinitism down the longest path that existed for eternity shedding tears…with my friends in the most magical and legendary lake of all time.These friends are the light that shines in the distant…you are the one in the darkness…looking for that light! That light. Is the only thing there to trust, you leave it to chance. One day you find it but it disappears. You can only have faith. That the light is still there. I found that light and I constantly lose it but I learn to trust it even more. I WILL win THIS. I DECLARE IT!!!!!!!!!!! This is how bad I want to win!
