One Story Connects Us
![“I’m no stranger,” I said, and pointed to his book. “I’m someone who reads the same authors you do.” [Lemony Snicket]](https://dailyquipple.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/quipple975.jpg)
Today is Hans Christian Anderson’s birthday (1805), and since 1967, Children’s Book Day. Let’s celebrate wonderful books and in particular, the ones we find in childhood and never let go. Today’s quipple features words from Lemony Snicket (Daniel Handler), who is one of today’s great children’s book authors.
Please share in the comments – what were the special books of your childhood?

The Book Lover
TDQ team members all love books, but K especially has a problem with collecting too many! (But is it really a problem, and are there really too many?) We also love C.S. Lewis’s quote, from which this quipple was spun: “You can’t get a cup of tea big enough or a book long enough to suit me.”
What We Love, What We Are
!["The things that we love tell us what we are." [Thomas Aquinas]](https://dailyquipple.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/quipple465.jpg)
This quipple features some things that T joyfully loves: books, cooking, dogs, and the color yellow. But the words of Thomas Aquinas have much deeper meaning, for the most important things we love are not things. Today, reflect on what is truly most important in your life.
