The website promoting this piece of art says, "For the first time, the worlds most influential religious texts are brought together and presented on the same level, their coexistence acknowledged and celebrated”. The shelf is made of reclaimed wood that contains seven religious books. The designers have put them – literally – on the same level.Well, pish posh! I think that some books ARE better than others! How about you?
- What book have you read in the last six months that has really stayed with you? Why?
- What is one of your favorite childhood books?
- Do you have a favorite book of the Bible? Do tell!
- What is one book you could read again and again?
- Is there a book you would suggest for Lenten reading? What is it and why?
And because we all love bonus questions, if you were going to publish a book what would it be? Who would you want to write the jacket cover blurb expounding on your talent?
It's supposed to snow here this weekend, so I think I'll just check out your answers and hope to find a good book! Please let us know that you've played by creating a link to your blog. The secret code is <a href="the url of your blog post goes here">what you want the link to say goes here</a>

No matter how hard I try to get this done and posted early, I am without fail not the first. Wah. Thanks revhrod, for such a great Friday Five. I really enjoyed it. But I got a question, just what website was it that had the picture and put all the religious texts on the same level?
Any hoo here is my best of the best books post.

For those who want more info about the book shelf: go to http://www.blankblank.net/collection/mikeandmaaike/religion/index.php.
It is titled Juxtaposed and is a mere $2500. It is the first in a series of "curated bookshelves." They also show the shelf with the books in place.
Thanks to everyone who has played so far. You've read some great books!
It seems rather late to post my books, but here it is.
Better late than never! I love books

I have played here!
After a break of a few months, I played.
It is almost tomorrow, so I am signing off for the night. (If you post after this, I do promise to check your blog in the morning.)
In celebration of all the reading we've done, here's a poem for the night.
Reading in Bedm by Helen H. Moore
Oh, what could be better
Than reading in bed,
Or thinking about
All the books that you've read?
With someone who loves you,
A father, a mother,
A doll, or a pet,
Or a sister or brother,
A grandma, a grandpa,
An uncle, an aunt -
(Can you think of anything better?
I can't!)
While outside the sky
Is all twinkling with light,
From stars that shine down
As we sleep through the night.
Oh, what could be better
Than sleepin in bed,
When the books that you love
Fill the dreams in your head?
I'm late, but I played here
I started out to do this at seven this morning and finally made it here.
I played, a little late.
Ususally when I'm this late I just let it go, but not this topic!
I finally had time to play here
My favorite book in childhood was
"Swiss Family Robinson". Just now
I've been reading "Three Cups of
Tea". Some of it is hard, but some
very inspiring.
Is this the latest Friday Five ever???
