Three years ago, Chris Mull and I wrote a song and made a music video for the Stay Home and Read a Book Ball. It was an event hosted by the local library. It’s weird that all Johnson County library locations are closed right now– BUT there are little free libraries all across the country. If you’re scratching your head and asking, “what’s a little free library?” They are basically outdoor stands in random spots with books inside that can be accessed at any hour. Just click on this link to find one that’s within walking or driving distance from you! Also here are the lyrics to Electric Florence Acoustic Lawrence:
We could climb a mountain
we could sail the sea
we could fly to Paris
or just stay home and read
Elizabeth Barrett Browning
Edgar Allan Poe
James Joyce and D.H. Lawrence
had an upstairs maid named Florence
The world spins ’round the right way
the skies are blue all the live long day
the birds sing sweetly in the trees
When you and I stay home and read
Just got my new book for book club. It’s Founding Mothers by Cokie Roberts. Anxious to start it. Looks like another gray day.
aw! it’s sunny here, Mom!
