I loved books and reading as a young girl. . .

 

I remember this book quite well.  I absolutely loved it in sixth grade.  All of the girls at Sunset Elementary stood in line waiting to check it out as soon as it was turned in.  I have learned that it is a much sought after book.  One is listed on ebay for $1,000.  It seems that a lot of girls from the later 1950's early 1960's loved it as well.  Do you remember a favorite book from your growing up days?

 

I also loved "Charlotte's Web", "The Boxcar Children" and "Pippi Longstocking"!

 

I found these vintage images of friends.  My sister is my very best friend.  Sisters are like that I think.

 

I appreciate your friendship, dear journaling friends.  I am fortunate to have met you here at "Bunny Cottage".

and still, gently allows you to grow".~William Shakespeare
