Carolyn, your father has the warmest smile (now I can clearly see who you’ve got such a beautiful smile from) 😊 Oh and I absolutely love this ‘milestone’ idea your parents came up with!
As for Shakespeare, my favorite author in the whole world, I have many editions, children’s and adult versions. I have Cats in Shakespeare’s costumes. But, honestly, as I got older, I graduated from Folger to the Arden Editions. Ardens give you so much background, annotation s and information. Midsummer is a hoot if performed all out! Hamlet is beautiful for its poetry and holding a mirror up to nature. Gives lots of insights into relationships between Parents and children and siblings. Lastly, you really need to reread Lear, but wait till you’re older.
Hi Carolyn! It melts my heart seeing the bond you have with your dad! 🥺And those star-shaped stones as a celebration of accomplishments - what a lovely tradition! ❤ I would love to see the continuation of the book tour series. It is always fun to hear the story behind why you chose your books and why you chose any particular edition.
Aw I'm so glad :) We are a family who loves different traditions! I'll keep that in mind! I'm so glad you like hearing more about my different books :)
Awwww .. Carolyn! You have such a lovely dad - now I understand how you have got your sweet and heart-warming smile. I am happy for you! My bookshelf situation is like you, even worse! Using two rows in one shelf. Hehee! Somehow managing! :D
I loved that you included your dad in the video! He seems so sweet, and he did an amazing job with the shelf! I love how it turned out! And the stars are such a cute idea!
All my bookshelves were also made by my dad lol isn't it nice though, to have special projects together? i love planning and making this kind of stuff with him (even though he does most of the work tbh)! Oh, and you two have the same smile, so cute!
when i was younger i was really into doctor who so he made a bookshelf in the shape of a TARDIS!! I don't really have the space for it, and I don't really love the series anymore, but I can't get rid of it for the life of me so it currently sits in our backyard with my dad's comic books
Aw that's wonderful! It's so nice to do projects together, yes! :) hahaha same here I provide to ideas and he does all the real work! That's so sweet of you to say!

Carolyn, your dad did a beautiful job! The bookshelf is lovely! I'd like to see the books you put on it on another video. 💖✨
I would totally love to see an in-depth tour of this new shelf!
There is nothing quite as exciting as getting a new book shelf😇
Now that is a SOLID bookshelf ...it'll never warp or bend like other thin shelves do...very nice job I must say
What a gorgeous bookshelf! Your father is so talented! ♥️

It looks beautiful, especially having all the different editions next to each other.☘️
Thank you so much Carolyn for this video. The shelves came out so pretty and I cannot wait to see more of your beautiful editions! :)

Your Dad made a beautiful shelf and also I love the meaning of the stars.
Very nice: Use it in good health.
That is what I call a shelf, I could do with about 10 of them. Is your Dad willing to pop over to the UK for a few days?
hahaha I'll ask him! :D
