Okay, three normal sized books in adult terms, but fairly long in children's book terms

And in children's terms, three phenomenally ginormous (sp? gawd it's too early for this!) books. I do a happy dance every time I see kids engrossed in those tomes of hers. Who said reading was dead?
(PS The statue was apparently of Hermes, aka Mercury, aka the messenger of the gods, aka Percy's owl)
