Not surprisingly, she keeps our children’s bookshelves well-stocked. GG is a self-proclaimed bibliophile and book club devotee. Yet, even when we’re far from GG and back Down South, we have her books and her love for a good story within our reach. ![]() We treasure our summer visits to Maine where we can eat Fiddleheads (handpicked by GG) dipped in melted butter and sink our teeth into her famous Snickerdoodles while watching a loon dip under the glassy surface of a pristine lake surrounded by Hemlocks. We’re very fortunate that she’s eager to share all the loves of her life with our family. ![]() Our beloved GG (great-grandmother Jean) loves many things – cooking, books, dogs, playing in the dirt, and Maine. I actually wrote the below review several years ago for a magazine. You never stop learning from Miss Rumphius. First up is: Miss Rumphius, an all-time favorite of mine and one the kids love as well. I’ve decided to start sharing some reflections on favorite books around here – the ones that we read over and over again. Regular readers know one of my favorite activities to do alone or with my kids is reading. ![]()
