Re: Favorite Books

[Nancy Riemer Kellner <Nkellner@aol.com>]

OOPS, My first posting had no subject line.  Mea culpa.
Greetings,
I've been following this thread for a week (or more) and keep saying to
myself, why prolong it by posting at such a late date.  But seeing all the
"Johnny and janey come lately's" I've decided that I just have to share too.
(I'm like the little kid who is last to raise his/her hand in class, I guess.)

My favorites were the Edward Eager magical stories (Half Magic, something
with thyme in the title...), Children of Green Knowe, Narnia, From the
Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, Miss Pickerell, Mrs.
Piggle-Wiggle (however didactic), the Mushroom Planet books by Eleanor
Cameron, A Wrinkle in Time and oh, does anyone remember "realistic" fiction
about Cathy who always seemed to come to dinner in a freshly ironed white
blouse?
