Unboxing – January Book Box Club – Storytellers
The theme for the January Book Box Club box was Storytellers. I’m going to be honest – this wasn’t one I was super excited for, it just didn’t necessarily sound like my theme. However I trust Kate and Libby, and I haven’t missed a box yet, and have no intention of starting!
