Do you remember any of these?

I still have...
...lots of my books from when I was a child. I dug them out the other day. These are a few of my favourites. My absolute favourite was The Diddakoi by Rumer Godden. It was a TV series too called Kizzy and is entirely responsible for my life-long, deep-rooted wish to own a gypsy caravan! I read it to my two girls a couple of years ago, and still bawled my eyes out when the old horse dies! The pictures in these books instantly transport me back to when I wore Mary Quant smock dresses and sat in the back of my Dad's Volvo Estate listening to his cassette tapes of The Carpenter's...happy times!

I remember the ballet book, I used to have lots of ladybird books, my favourite was the elves and the shoemaker, I think that's where my love of sewing comes from.
ReplyDeleteI had lots too! My favourite was Cinderella. I could never decide out of the the three ball gowns she wore, which I liked best!
ReplyDeleteFunny how clearly you remember them isn't it...
