Seriously. Adorable, right? "To: Annette, From: Jennie" - I love that part.
What a sweet, simple gift to give to your best bud. I found this in a thrift store in Memphis last weekend. It reminds me of this book that I blogged a while back. With the same dose of neon pink and chartreuse and the absolute sweetest illustrations. Both books are tiny, around 4"x6". The sentiments kind of remind me of a greeting card, but in book form? I just love them.
The details:
A "Brownie" Book, 100BK4011-1
Written by Nancy Barrett Weiss
Illustrated by Norma Bahn

So adorable! The illustrations are fantastic. Great find :]

Just the sweetest little book. My 6 year old read along with me & really loved it (especially the little poodle because we have one too).

Oh, I LOVE this! So ridiculously, ridiculously cute! I really think I need to start paying more attention to the book department when I go thrifting. I tend to skim through the books pretty quickly and I'm probably missing some amazing treasures!

So adorable! I have a few of them too, most published by Hallmark. I think they were sold at card shops. I just want to frame all the little illustrations and hang them around my house!

What are some of your favorite Memphis thrift stores (and vintage!)? I got most of my vintage pyrex from Sheffield's in Collierville, and Bartlett has some pretty good places. Do you go to Flashback when you visit? I wish I could live there! : )

it would take so much restraint for me to not rip out all of the pages and hang them on the wall! so cute!
