A good friend of mine sent me this challenge: Fifteen books or book series you've read that will always stick with you, so here goes:
Butternut Bill and the Bee Tree (1st book I remember reading)
Miss Twiggleys Tree
Frederick (about a mouse who wants to think about colors instead of collect food)
Smoky the Cowhorse
King of the Wind
D'Aulaires' book of Norse myths
The Hobbit
Moby Dick
Huckleberry Finn
Kon Tiki
The Alphabet versus the Goddess
The Patrick O'Brien novels
Under the Vulture Tree
Witches & Neighbors
Leaves of Grass
It's interesting--once I began, I thought of all these cool books I read when I was young and I had a hard time "growing up" and thinking of all the cool books I read as an adult. Some resistance there, I think, to "coming back" to adult life :) So the last books were squeezed out of my brain with some effort. I want to read Frederick again, and Miss Twiggley's Tree ...
