Just one more chapter ... and another ... and another ...

 
Bookworms will rule the world ... as soon as we finish one more chapter.


Mildred D. Taylor, on writing:

I do not know how old I was when the daydreams became more than that,

and I decided to write them down,

but by the time I entered high school,

I was confident that I would one day be a writer.

- Mildred D. Taylor.
