I would imagine spending whole days in the land at the top of the tree with Moonface and Silky. I also remember telling you I was going to send Enid Blyton fan mail and having you gently tell me that she was, in fact, long dead. <br /><br />I have a vivid memory of reading a massive hard cover copy of Little Woman sitting in a tree at Vacation Care. Some other favourites were Thursday's Child, The Railway Children, Moondial, The Chronicles of Narnia, absolutely everything by Roald Dahl, I wanted Miss Honey as a teacher and just once to have the chance to try a Wonka's Scrumdidlyumptious bar!! <br /><br />Later, when I grew up a bit, you introduced me to Stephen King with The Eyes of the Dragon and James Herbet with The Magic Cottage and Clive Barker's Weaveworld. <br /><br />Although I must say, though I started reading Harry Potter well into my teens, they will forever be the books that capture my childhood.Maxinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02690474483386488911noreply@blogger.com
