Ray Bradbury Tribute Shared on Karen Edmisten's Blog

Karen Edmisten: Beautiful tribute to Ray Bradbury found here: at Jimmy Akin's: Something Wondrous This Way Comes .

and now I am sharing it on my own blog.
I didn't know until now that Dandelion Wine was Ray Bradbury's
favorite of his own books, but now that I do know, I'm rather

Bradbury book, but next time I read it, it will be with a
tinge of sadness.
