I love this site. This book is out of print and I wanted it. I couldn't find it in any of the local second-hand book shops, on or off-line. But, someone had a copy in America, an old library copy, nice, clean, apparently unread - and now I have it, it arrived with the afternoon post. Very interesting it is too (3rd chapter in, despite the cleaning frenzy!). Sometimes I just LOVE the internet.

That is one ripping book store. I searched out Illustrated Childrens' Books and found a blinder, which I just had to blog because it led me to a v strange site about ducks.
Yes. You gotta love the Internet sometimes.
The internet kicks bottom. I mean, how many years of trawling through old newspaper clippings would it have taken me to find that article about norty ducks & their odd mating habits? 1/2 a minute on Google and BINGO.
