T!.!.!.I do it all the time!. It really helps that my family thinks I am reading to my grand daughter!.!.!.LOL, a little mystique never hurts!.!.!.
I love the Velveteen Rabbit, The American Gil books, fairy tales, Brothers Grimm, all those goofy books that "adults" are supposed to put behind them!.

Yes, I love rereading some of my childhood favorites!. One of the books I'm reading now is Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm by Kate Douglas Wiggin!. Recently I reread Little Women, Little Men and Jo's Boys by Louisa May Alcott and enjoyed it as much as I did as a child!. Last year I reread the Anne of Green Gables series by Lucy Maud Montgomery and The Chronicles of Narnia series by C!.S!. Lewis!.

This year I'm planning on reading, once again, Heidi by Johanna Spyri, The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett and Pollyanna by Eleanor H!. Porter!. There may be more, too!.

I probably wouldn't enjoy some of my childhood favorites, but I never grow tired of the classics!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Two recent favorites, read for the first time:

"Good Masters! Sweet Ladies!", Laura Schlitz, and
"Alcatraz versus the Evil Librarians," Brandon Sanderson!.

"Tintin" series," Herge,
"The Great Divorce," C!. S!. Lewis,
"Bridge to Terabithia," Paterson,
"The Neverending Story," Michael Ende!.

Such reading helps one champion one's childlike qualities, love, and even heal one's childish erring!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
