I had that alphabet Bible verse book too, and I loved it! I think ours fell apart. They were not really "bound" to last. I distinctly remember my mom reading it to me and my sisters and us trying to learn the verses. So fun to see it on here.
I loved reading my dad's old books; I have a few for my son when he gets older! I actually learned to read from his old Sally, Dick, and Jane primer! ha!
Those books are absolutely precious! It is so sweet that your parents have saved those books for so many years. I love old stuff. I have a couple of books from when I was a little girl. One sitting on Jordan's shelf because it is so cute. Good post.
What sweet books! I love the pictures too, brings us back to much more simpler times! :) Glad SK safely got her cissy! ;) I'm doing a giveaway I think you may be interested in, stop by!
I love "loved" books like your Dad's...so much love in each of those tears and marks! What a special gift for the girls! And, I love the idea of the ABC scripture book!
those books are so precious! I LOVE the bible verse alphabet book! I am going to look on Ebay and see if I can find one!!! Poor SK, hope getting rid of "cissy" gets better... I know we'll have to deal with the same thing in a few months when we decide to take our daughther's away!
I remember that ABC Bible Memory Verse book!!! I learned verses in SS from it. I would love to find one for myself so I could use it to teach my kids! I am always a sucker for old reading books. The pictures are always so simple and beautiful!
I have a deep love for vintage children's books and decor. In fact little D's room is decorated with a vintage/retro theme...I need to post pictures soon!
Looking forward to meeting you this weekend, Laurie!
ADORABLE books! how sweet that you have them!!!!! I imagine them being placed on an old wood high-chair with an assortment of baby spoons and such!!! how sweet!!!
I had that alphabet Bible verse book too! I actually said them all in front of our church when I was 4- I got a magnet for it that is still on my parent's fridge! I wish I could find that book!
Hi Laurie! I just hopped over from Kelly's blog, and just had to comment on your Dad's old books! What a family treasure!!!
We are from Australia, we homeschool, and enjoy thrift shopping and garage-saling in order to build a heritage library for our children. Among our collection so far, are many from the same era with similar pictures. Our daughters love going garage saling with Daddy now and searching out their own vintage finds. God Bless Claire
