We use to fight over who got to carry Miss Feather's purse in kindergarten!! I loved the progression in your story that showed how your love for reading has only grown as you've gotten older. Your son sounds like a kid I would adore..especially how he already has an affinity for old books and where someone has written in them!! Thanks for sharing this with us!!Stacihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07600979915661464945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2475017404220201735.post-49410435831248477492009-04-07T00:02:00.000-04:002009-04-07T00:02:00.000-04:00I can relate to so much of what you said! I love t...I can relate to so much of what you said! I love this line "I learned that books can take you to so many different places through the turn of a page and how much I loved to read." That is so true. I always (and sometimes still do) lost myself in the pages of books. I became the heroine of whatever story I read. <BR/><BR/>I'd climb our tree and hide up in its branches, so I could read. Awesome post. Thanks for a walk down memory lane.Holly (2 Kids and Tired)https://www.blogger.com/profile/13075380878850295214noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2475017404220201735.post-44162590479777302132009-04-06T18:14:00.000-04:002009-04-06T18:14:00.000-04:00What a great post!

MacDonalds didn't even exist when I was in the first grade. I do remember reading Dick and Jane though. At the end of the school year our bus driver would take us to Howard Johnson's (28 flavors, wow)for an ice cream cone.
