Just came upon your site when searching for info on Kindle Fire! I am currently converting (or reducing!) my eBook ‘eBook Typography for Flowable eBooks’ for Kindle – and what a pain it is. Like you, I got the Kindle Fire a couple of weeks back.
Thanks for commenting, Chris. I discovered yesterday that if I side-load files onto the Kindle Fire for checking it won’t save any of my notes or highlights. As I highlight errors to come back to when I’m checking it’s annoying. It’s fine on the ios apps.
I need you to help design my blog page! Yours looks great.
Thanks, Lisa! I used a free theme, but I think I tweaked the colours.
I couldn’t find a nice free theme.
[…] everyone who looks at my blogs and very happy and healthy New Year. And thank you for stopping […]
Hi jill
I just read your review on Hilda Boswell treasury of poetry
It was the only book my father bought me as little girl maybe 6-8 years old and I loved all the poems and illustrations
I don’t have it anymore unfortunately
I would love to share the poem and illustration summer morning again with my daughter she is now 15 though I told her about it many years ago since she was very little and I found the words but not with the illustrations
Would you be able to share a photo of the poem with illustrations from the book please ?
Many thanks
Hi Stella.
I’ve added the images to the bottom of the post about the books.
All the best
Jill
