About meI am perfectly odd.

About my libraryI love "vintage" children's books. By that I mean children's books from the 50s and 60s, which is the same as my own vintage. :) I love readers because of their artwork, and I love having the books I enjoyed reading as a child. I like to collect all of the books written by my favorite adult authors, too. Hopefully soon I will list more of my treasures on LibraryThing.

I think the risk of doing it and keeping it that way is bad enough not to do it. I know members have experimented with combining authors, then combining their works, then UN-combining the authors. That's something of a "cheat," but it ought to work in theory. Do you know if it does?
