“It was a future they couldn’t quite see, where the richness of all they had brought to the great land of promise would one day be zapped into nothing, the glorious tapestry of their history boiled down to a series of ten-second TV commercials, empty holidays, and sports games filled with the patriotic fluff of red, white, and blue, the celebrants cheering the accompanying dazzle without any idea of the horrible struggles and proud pasts of their forebears who had made their lives so easy.”

My last read this month.
I know I'm late to the party with this one, but The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse was just the comforting read I needed right now. Beautiful illustrations too.

In the midst of my books on my shelf lies this Newbery Award winning classic, "A Wrinkle In Time."

When I was in elementary school, I got this copy of the book. Even then, it was an old copy and it was well used after that. I believe I read this book annually until I was in college. I've read it a few times since, including a read through to my children back in 2020/2021.

I still love it.

What older books from your childhood, if any, do you still have on your shelf? Have you re-read them?

Let me know in the comments!
