    Default went to the thrift store

    Alexandra and I went to get our hair cut and while waiting for the guys who were at the barber, I popped into Goodwill.

    I found an old copy of "A Duck is a Duck". I was so happy to find it because I read it when I was little in school.

    How cool Sara. I know that A and Z will enjoy having it read to them.

    Great buys Heather.

    You did great Heather.

    No. I didn't get anything else. The book was $.17

    A Duck is a Duck is a school book by
    Theodore Clymer- Billie Parr- Doris Gates -Eleanor G. Robison

    Rainbow Edition/Ginn and Company

    I almost cried when I saw it. The cover is different because it's a more recent edition, but it has the same content. It was just too neat to come across it.

    A very cool find for a great price Sara. I'm sure Ally thought the thrift store was a lot of fun....right?
