February is one of those months that has a lot of holidays - some more exciting than others-in preparation apparently for the month of March, that doesn't offer a lot. I mean, here we are, on the ninth day of February, and already we've had Ground Hog's Day (Way to go, Jimmy!) and Super Bowl Sunday (Way to go (1) Eli or (2) Tom!), and Valentine's Day is but five days away. But before that we get Lincoln's birthday on the 12th followed by Washington's birthday on the 22nd, celebrated jointly on President's Day, the 20th. We also get Ash Wednesday on the 22nd, which means that Fat Tuesday or Shrove Tuesday or Mardi gras is the 21st. And just when you think the month of February couldn't get any more exciting, we get an extra day! Because this is leap year, we get a leap day which is February 29th. That extra day means more time for reading and there are plenty of good books for you to consider. Scroll your eyes down the page and see what treats are in store for you. Enjoy!
