To Read is to Travel...

By simply picking up a book you can be transported anywhere you want to go.

Any time.
Any place.
Any person.

When I finish a book about Anne of Green Gables, I feel the longing for puffed sleeves. As I think of Pride and Prejudice, I mourn that my life doesn't have any balls in it. But for the moment when I am in a book, I am wearing puffed sleeves, I am at a ball, I am meeting handsome men...I am transported.
