My Favourite Books as a Child Day 14

As a child

·         I wanted to go On The Ning Nang Nong  to see the cows go Bong.

·         I wanted to peek under the Quangle Wangle's Hat  (202ft) to see his face.

·         I loved hearing about The Owl and the Pussy Cat sailing off in their pea green boat and I wanted to meet the Piggy Wig with a ring at the end of his nose.

·         I loved From A Railway Carriage  by Robert Louis Stevenson. I loved how my mum read it to me to the rhythm of a train.

 I loved  sharing with my son when he was little.

Day six Reading

Day 6 Reading. I've entered two ideas here; one a written piece and the other pictures. x 


1 You Are Invited On a Journey

Transport me to a new world.  I can disappear into Hogwarts, casting spells and defeating The Dark Lord. I can do battle with Demons, Vampires, Immortals and fight dragons. I can shop until I drop without it costing me a penny with Becky Bloomwood aka Shopaholic.     

I can lose myself in the world of laughter that is Spike Milligan, shed a tear with Michael Morpurgo and  nose about the lives of Marilyn, Michael Caine, Sinatra in biographies.  

Books keep alive the history of our ancestors and the victories of our heroes. Each book is a journey waiting to be taken.
