Manitoba Book: Manitoba

Manitoba Book Dept: I love spending hours in a bookstore just meandering around waiting for a special book to jump off the shelf and into my arms and then rushing home to start reading it, according to Winnipeg Free Press. When I moved to Manitoba, I really didn't know much about the province. One way for me to get to know my new province was through books. I started searching for books that centred around Manitoba. Over the last five years, I have found quite a few Manitoba-themed books that I have really enjoyed. I also have a Manitoba book wish list, books that I have not yet read but I will read in the near future. Seeing as it is the Christmas season and many of my readers also live in Manitoba I thought you might enjoy my Manitoba book list. Perhaps they would make a nice present for a Manitoban in your life? Or perhaps they will pique your interest and you can request one of these books from Santa and i like things a bit retro in the book department. I love the feeling of a crisp, new book instead of an e-reader. I love to read in bed with a small dim light, and wake up with the book still in my hands and my last page dog-eared. I love getting books as presents and I love giving books as presents. When I read, I read for long periods of time. It is not uncommon for me to sit down and read for hours and hours and finish a book in one day. There is something magical about books. They transport you to another era, a different life. They teach you about life, and people, and things. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
