It seems to me that I have always loved (and lived) to read. I cannot imagine my life without it.
The first book that I really remember being enthralled with was Little Women. I also enjoyed Nancy Drew mysteries (and still do!
) And I read a lot of books about the saints since I went to a Catholic grade school. I read my way through that library..... Pippi Longstocking, Heidi, Black Beauty. We read the play A Man For All Seasons in 7th grade and that is one of my all-time favorites to this day.... Love the film too!
And there was a wonderful book with a short story for each day of the year with a wonderful, wise neighborhood grandmother named Mrs Apricot. I wish I could find that book. I loved it.
