I've recently begun re-reading all of my favorite stories from childhood, and asking friends to recommend some that I may have missed. I'd love to be able to read from such lovely books!
My mom used to read a chapter a day to us kids before school each morning. We went through "Swiss Family Robinson" and "Little Men/Women" about ten years ago. That's one of my favorite memories from my school years!
Good heavens! Helen in the Editor's Chair! I had that a million years ago, from some older relative's bookshelf, I guess. With dust jacket. As I recall, Helen was quite young and lovely and blonde. Of course, it vanished years ago.
(no, please don't enter me; I have many old kids' books already. But I had to comment.)
Wow, some great books. Very nice collection with Black Beauty, Little Women, and Treasure Island. My youngest 3 kids are finally old enough to read these.
My granny had the same edition of Little Women, which I enjoyed as a child. I've just re-read the three books again. Just as fascinating 50 years later.
Like Susanna says; please don't include me for the prize. The postage to here would cost an arm and a leg! Just looking at the titles of all ofthe books on your blog, kindles my memories.
