Imagination is a wonderful gift; it's sad when we lose it -- or maybe we don't if we're writers. :-)Linda Lanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06686488133905538811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704943052235281766.post-69882506361101984762018-05-29T12:11:58.697-06:002018-05-29T12:11:58.697-06:00My 6th grade teacher read Jack London novels to us...My 6th grade teacher read Jack London novels to us at the end of each day if we had completed our work.

She has books, stuffed animals, framed pictures, a unicorn she can ride around the house, ceramics, and two book bags or backpacks, to name a few. To her they are magical.Polly Iyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05729656119287702191noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5704943052235281766.post-31738945424547595092018-05-29T09:41:23.547-06:002018-05-29T09:41:23.547-06:00I don't remember any animal books from when I ...I don't remember any animal books from when I was very small, but did love the Jack London novels when I was a little older. I'll need to ask my grown-up boys if they had favorites when they were little.

I was also moved by <i>Charlotte's Web</i>, although I first saw that as a movie before reading the book. I love the song "Bright Eyes" from <i>Watership Down</i> but I don't recall ever seeing that movie or reading the book.Elle Carter Nealhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02266309723919011181noreply@blogger.com
