Harry, it behooves me to mention, as one of the Unutterably Silly, the distinct possibility that Donnageddon may be an Unutterably Silly person that has been sneaking under the radar.

I can only offer the suggestion, therefore, that in the aforesaid "book report" Donnageddon may have had his lingua firmly emplaced within his bucca.

On behalf of the Unutterably Silly, may I offer our apologies for this interruption to regular transmission.

Cheers,
Marc (CHERRYPOPBOING!-uggle-uggle-uggle)

Thanks, Harry. I guess I deserved that gold star for my report!

The Secret Garden - just as good now as an ebook

The Black Octopus, George E. Rochester - the book that started me out as a sci-fi collector. Got it from the school library. Unobtainable now.

The Boxcar Kids. I'm pretty sure that's the series you're referring to.

Not a "book" technically, but I vividly remember getting National Geographic's "World" magazine.

"National Geographic" always used to be a favourite in the school library - especially the issues featuring those parts of the world where clothes are not in fashion .

Yes, the ever popular photojournalist explorations of the "Ubangee Ubetcha" tribal dances.
