Where the blog’s title comes from
I took the title from a poem by children’s author and illustrator Arnold Lobel:
“Books to the ceiling, books to the sky.
My piles of books are a mile high.
How I love them!
How I need them!
I’ll have a long beard by the time I read them.”
This poem, along with Lobel’s delightful illustration, can be found in Whiskers & Rhymes.
