The main character in Ferris Beach has such a fixation on Helen Keller in elementary school that she has a run-in with the librarian over checking out her bio. It must be a generational thing because neither of my kids found her near as fascinating as I did--though my interest came primarily from the Patty Duke movie.SFPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17439972994357205049noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8861486.post-1163871795700752352006-11-18T12:43:00.000-05:002006-11-18T12:43:00.000-05:00The Little Golden Books!

My mom bought us a shelf of these.<BR/><BR/>As a child I read one particular Helen Keller biography so many times my mother and the librarian agreed I could only take it out once yearly.<BR/><BR/>I adored Laura Ingalls Wilder (still do) and can recite passages of her books from memory. <BR/><BR/>Re Gone with the Wind...I have an edition from the thirties that belonged to a cousin. it's so fragile I am afraid to open it, and borrowed a library copy in high school. Like you, I devoured it in a couple days.<BR/><BR/>BKBarking Kittenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09890054801145851033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8861486.post-1163715016560823312006-11-16T17:10:00.000-05:002006-11-16T17:10:00.000-05:00I'm with you on Wind in the Willows...I'm with you on Wind in the Willows...LKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05445951627105831041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8861486.post-1163708579699104762006-11-16T15:22:00.000-05:002006-11-16T15:22:00.000-05:00I loved Little Golden Books when I was a kid.
