Personal Library A Most Special Creation By New Babbage's very own Ms Canolli Capalini

Allow me to share this most special creation ... for like it .. being a personal Library
created by a good friend .. A good book is just that a good friend to us all !!! Capalini Fine Furnishings Presents a large Personal Library for your home decor/furnishing needs. Row upon row of books line these 3 cases; a book lover's delight. Elegant crown and bottom molding accent the dark gleaming woods. Dark copper and brass detailing draw your eye to the sliding ladder. But as your eyes follow the different books, there is a realization that this bookcase tells a story. The sliding ladder actually slides between one of three positions, accessible via a drop down menu. Sit upon the ladder and choose from 1 of 2 custom animations suited for the ladder, a thinking sit at the bottom of the ladder, and a browsing animation toward the top of the ladder.

For those enjoying the bookshelf with a friend, there are 3 very carefully selected couple animations and 1 custom created animation to express a more intimate conversation.Perhaps you have no need to see the shadows beneath the ladder and bookshelf. The capacity to turn the shadows on/off is via the drop down menu.* Custom textured books (no repeats upon the shelves)* Drop down menu for Ladder Positions* Drop down menu for Shadows on/off* Drop down menu for couple animations* Custom sculpts and texturesSitting at 32 prims, this large bookshelf / bookcase easily provides a center of attention in a room. A wonderful conversation piece, accompaniment to a roleplay or prop for a scenario, gift for that special booklover you know, or just to provide that elegant, classical feel to any room,
the Personal Library is a detailed and thoughtful piece.
For more information, please contact Canolli Capalini. Adventures with Books Author Unknown Books are ships that sail the seas
To lands of snow or jungle trees
And I'm the captain bold and free
Who will decide which place we'll see Come let us sail the magic ship
Books are trains in many lands

Crossing hills or desert sands And I'm the engineer who guides The train on its exciting rides. Come, let us ride the magic trainBooks are zoos that make a home For birds and beasts not free to roamAnd I'm the keeper of the zoo I choose the things to show to you Come, let us visit in a zooBooks are gardens, fairies, elvesCowboys and people like ourselves
And I can find with one good lookJust what I want inside a book Come,
let us read! For reading's fun
Books To the Ceiling
by Arnold Lobel
Books to the ceiling
Books to the sky
My piles of books are a mile high
How I love them
How I need them I'll have a long beard by the time I read them
grins at the poses ... quite clever indeed !!!
Smiles and grins how well the book case fits in The Piermont !!
A Book Speaks
When you drop me on the floor I get stepped on -
my sides are sore;Torn-
out pages make me groan;
I feel dizzy if I'm thrown;
Every mark and every stain
On my covers gives me pain;
Please don't bend me,
if you do I don't want to talk to you;
But we will both be friends together,
If you protect me from the weather
And keep me clean so that I look
A tidy, neat and happy book. Author Unknown
Each of The animations are quite original clever...
After a brief rest its back work one must go ...
hummmm... once can lost in thought now where was I (grins)
This Bookcase is a large build and it does make a statement !!
simply stunning in detail creative sculpted design and textures !!
Now where was it.... smiles at Moby Dick .......

**drools.... OH! (tho I'd also like a non shiny version)... *cringe* I've done a bookshelf like this for another 3D art project; and believe me, it's no small thing to scan all those book spines! Well done!

Bookworm repeats to herself, over and over, "You don't have room. You don't have room."
