Mailbox Monday


There is only one book on my Mailbox Monday list, but I really like it. I spent a big hunk of Saturday afternoon flipping through it.

Only the Best: A Celebration of Gift Giving in America by Stuart E. Jacobson (not a good picture):



This is a coffee table book with lots of pictures. It is all little stories about real presents that famous people gave or received. I love it!

I found it at a church rummage sale and thought that it was brand new. It is in pristine condition. But it was published in 1985.
