hi its rita

thinking about the post what bood you hated reading at school or something like that  got me thinking about tyhe books i loved when i was younger so ive asked for swaps they are ------The Secret Garden and What Katey DID, THERE ARE LOADS OF THESE BOOKS ON SITE SO I SHOULD BE LUCKY

I still have my battered copys of The secret garden, A little princess & Catherine dreams. Ive also kept quite afew that I read to my kids when they were young ,Stig of the dump was one of thier favourites

 I loved these as well and I've decided to read 1 book from my childhood each month. Well that's the plan.

 My copy of The Secret Garden is the most battered book I own! And I get ex-library books all the time, and charity shop books...I actually got The Secret Garden new and was always careful with my books as a child, but I just read it so many times it couldn't help but get damaged.

hi its rita ive been accepted for swaps so i shall be receiving sectret garden and what katy did in the next couple of days then ali wants to read them next

 I liked The Mill on the Floss as well when at school.

Probably classed as young adult these days but I got a book on her called The L-shaped Room by Lynne Reid Banks that I read as a teenager and loved. Someone had it free for postage and it's the same version that I borrowed from my local library and is an ex library book itself. Wonderful RISI

I loved the Borrowers.
