"Well who wouldn't be passionate about windows into the world?" Jessie asked as she took the last few decals and headed towards the first window, the one right by the front door. "As Dr Seuss once said 'The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go.' I find that one can pick up almost anything from any book." She picked up a children's book from the front counter, Jackson looked like he was about to say something then went back to sketching in his book, "This book has dragons and giants, princes and princesses, and yet you can learn that in a sword fight against a better opponent it is best to run away even though it is cowardly, after all the live hero returns to fight while the dead hero.... is well dead." She put back down the book and went back to the window to stick a white bunny with a pink bow around its neck to the glass. "I believe it was Charles Eliot who said, 'Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.'."
As they moved from one window to another leaving behind colorful eggs, flowers, bunnies, and birds Jessie contemplated Trevor's insight into egg hunts but finally concluded, "If a egg hunt was held there would have to be two different age categories, one for the kids with candy and toys and one for the older kids to adults with money and gift cards. Its a lot of work. I wonder if the local community or the city is holding one."
