Inheritance Of Book Collections


The boy inherited a set of children's dictionaries and encyclopedias from daddy dated back to 35 years ago.  As school holidays are around the corner, we brought home the young children's series from parents in-law's house while the senior series remained there due to lack of space in our condo. Some of the books from the preschooler's series are still kept in our old house.  I will eventually move all the books here to complete the set when I get a big and tall book shelf to house them. 

Though some of the information in the books are a bit outdated but nevertheless they do make good reading materials.  I hope my boy treasures his inherited book collections and passes it down to his offsprings in the future.. Oh, am I too ambitious?  I am predicting things that would only happen in at least 20 years and that's only if I am still healthy and alive to be able to see things happen.  Oh, I probably think too much and too far jor..:)

The picture illustrations look so classic, don't you think?

"From Dad", your FIL is such a loving father, he even signed on the book for the son.

Wow~ I'm really interested in (3rd generation) Charlie Brown Dictionary. The words come with meaning and picture, unlike the newer version of dictionary only offers words and meanings..... no pictures.
