In My Mailbox...is a meme hosted by Kristi over atThe Story Siren, and is a way for bloggers to share all the bookish (books they've won, been given, given for review, checked out from the library) goodness that recently came into their possession.
"Here's the mail, it never fails.
It makes me want to wag my tail.
When it comes I want to wail - Maillllllll!"

In My Mailbox This Week...
The fabulous Emma Raveling sent me a signed copy of her equally fabulous book Whirl, including a lovely inscription, because she's, well fabby fab of course. I fell in love with this book back in October. If you haven't read this book yet, you MUST! You can get it as an ebook for only 99 cents. You can read my 5 Cupcake review HERE
A big THANK YOU to Emma!!!

Tales from a 1001 Nights

The Theif Lord Cornelia Funke
Harriet the Spy Louise Fitzhugh
