Well, first of all, let me say I loved the books I got. Three picture book biographies, as requested, and now I have a new favorite author, Don Brown. So that's good. I may get a few of them for the nieces' school, actually - I'm always trying to get them some non-fiction books, because I know some children prefer those to fiction and schools are always full-full-full of early readers that are stories, not much in the way of biographies or science or history or whatnot.

And I checked out the guy I Secret Santa'd as well. Unlike me, he mostly lists the books and only seems to rate or review them if they're especially good or especially bad, so I was very happy to see he'd given Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers a five star rating. That's the sort of thing you want to see when you give somebody a gift :)

Next year I'll do it again!

Neat, I'm glad it worked out. Giving gifts is far more rewarding if the person ends up really liking it.
