books

My son was not one for neatness.  He would sleep on a bare mattress on the floor and go without socks, and for all I know, without underwear, rather than do laundry.  But he had a profound respect for books.  He would scold me whenever I would leave paperbacks splayed out face down. saying it would ruin the spine.  All of his books, hundreds of them, are immaculate.
