I love books, for a variety of reasons, but one of the biggest reasons I like books is because I don’t have to remember everything. Everybody should have a home library of emergency type books that would help him or her with everyday needs and/or emergency situations. As long as I know I have the information in a book and that all I have to do is look it up when I need it, then I feel that I am prepared. This list of books has been very helpful to my family over the years.
