bookplates

Martinbrown2
Today I came across My Home Library a website dedicated to bookplates, particularly to bookplates done for children’s books by illustrators. For example, this one by Martin Brown. If you go to the site you can download it for free as long as you use it only for your own, non-commercial purposes. There are hundreds of them at My Home Library.

I love bookplates, but I never put them in books; I never write anything in a book, either. But I do have a small collection of bookplates, and I love the ones on this website.

    All of my books at work (social work books) all have book plates because people kept stealing them thinking they were works books and not mine. Thanks for the link, now I can put some cute ones on there.

You've stumbled across my official website and landed on the front page of my weblog.

My name is Rosina Lippi. I'm a former academic and tenured university professor,  writing full time since 2000. Under the pen name Sara Donati I am the author of the Wilderness series, six historical novels that follow the fortunes of a group of families living in upstate New York from about 1792-1825. A new series based on later generations of the same families was launched September 1, 2015 with The Gilded Hour. The next volume in the new series,  Where the Light Enters, was  released in 2019.

 

Please see the pinned post for an overview of what you'll find on this weblog, and what has been moved to the wiki  (including the FAQ page).

 

Wise Guys

If you are in difficulties with a book, try the element of surprise: attack it at an hour when it isn’t expecting it.
