Tuesday is officially Great Books = Great Gifts Day

Books are my favorite gifts to receive (hint, hint), especially when you know that the giver put a lot of thought into what kind of book you would like.

Do you have a friend or family member going abroad soon? M. Sasek, who created beautiful travel books for children in the 1960's, has a whole line of reissues available at Amazon.com. They are about $13 dollars and really a fun gift for a new traveler. I know I would have loved to have This is Venice and This is Rome when we went to Italy!

Check out the author's website below for his interesting biography and to see all of the places he's covered. They even have U.S. cities, which would make great Christmas gifts for loved ones, especially if they have just moved to that city!
