Mrs. Dahlov Ipcar Robinhood Farm Star Route 2 Bath, Maine 04530
Dear Mrs, Ipcar: The wonderful package of books came this morning. Thank you, thank you!
The Maine Author Collection books do not go out on the bookmobiles: they don't, as a matter of fact, go out at all. They are available in the library, as a unit, for visitors and students to consult and admire. This is a permanent exhibit collection, and we are looking forward to the new building now, and the prospect of having more suitable exhibit space.
The books which do go on to the bookmobiles are purchased through regular booksellers. We don't expect those to be gifts.
The lovely new SONG OF THE DAY BIRDS AND THE NIGHT BIRDS is a special treasure. One of the most appealing things is the reference to Bendemeer's Stream -- a charming custom, and the same experience was in my family. Does anyone sing that wistful old song nowadays? Whether or not the song is familiar, the book is beautiful, surely one of your most artistic and imaginative.
We are indeed appreciative of your generosity.
Sincerely yours
