Over Winter break we traveled down to South Carolina and then Florida. Charleston is definitely someplace I'd like to visit again and spend more time exploring. We only had a couple days there, but while walking around the city we found a wonderful bookstore- Blue Bicycle Books. (Anytime we travel I manage to sniff out bookshops!)
Blue Bicycle Books is an interesting mix of new and old books. In a back hallway shelf I found an antique copy of Twenty Years Before the Mast. I particularly liked the description on the front page:
In the children's room Madeleine picked up Hello Lighthouse. I immediately loved the illustrations, some of which are drawn with the unique perspective of living in a lighthouse. Sophie Blackall makes the life of a lighthouse keeper seem particularly charming.
