Children's books
Do you remember some of those books you read deep into the night, or curled up in the chair in the living room ignoring the TV.
The books you checked out of the school library time and time again?
I don't know if it was some fundamental change I had when I was working at MP and had 40% off, but I wanted my library, and I wanted it to be my own that I could pull down a book at anytime and reference it.
I know I also started a while back grabbing some of the books I read as a grade schooler be it for class or on my own to add to my library. I still want to do that, I still am working on pulling some in.
These are the ones I have:
Witch of Blackbird Pond
Julie of the Wolves
Island of the Blue Dolphins
Call it Courage
Mara daughter of the Nile
Mr Poppers Penguins
I think I got Across Five Aprils for Maria
Here are ones that I would be looking for:
Winter Cottage (family during the depression who ends up holing up in a rich family's summer cottage, low and behold one of the stranglers they take in is the owner and his daughter!)
the Outsiders
The Pigman
My Side of the Mountain
Leo the Late bloomer (ok that one is 1st and 2nd Grade but ah well)
darn it! I had more swimming around my head when I started this and now I can't think of all of them.
I'm also remembering bits and pieces of some that I can't remember the names of, bits and pieces of the story arch keep coming up and I want to re-read but they were school library books.
What are some of yours? What books that you read when you were
