Trivia Pur$uit

The only novel to top the bestseller list for two consecutive years - 1972 and 1973 - was Richard Bach's `Jonathan Livingstone Seagull'. It was a fable in novella form about a seagull learning about life and how to fly.

Hi BTBear,

Yes, it's the sequel to his first bestseller, `Trouble Bruin'.

Aha - got you there.

Hi Cuckoo,

It was a terrific read. You've given me the impetus to find a new copy of the book!

Keep smiling

That was the first book given to me by my Grandmother. I read that thing over and over. I may need to find a copy for my 2 yr. old daughter's bed reading time.
