Blog Prompt: What was your favorite childhood book? If you have children, have you passed this book down?
Oh Oh. I loved reading as a child and still do. I remember going to the library every week to get a book to read. There was always the ‘new’ book to get and one tried and true. I especially loved science fiction. And my all time favorite was “A Wrinkle In Time,” by Madeleine L’Engle. There were others that I really enjoyed around the same time frame. They, too, were about time and the bending of time, but I cannot recall the names or the authors. I wish I could, as I would like to revisit the childhood memories contained therein.
But for passing it down, I never did, as I never owned it. Still it is interesting that when Disney made it into a movie, my mother remembered how much I liked the book and recorded the show for me.

I've never heard of a Wrinkle in Time book OR movie! Sounds like something I would have enjoyed though...
Goodnight Moon!
Twenty-One Balloons.
Oh, and Where the Sidewalk Ends.
And yes, I have passed these down to my own children. I actually had to go out an buy the books for them, as I didn't own them.
I loved that book too! Thanks for reminding me of that one!
(This is my 2nd attempt...hope I don't double comment.)
I loved A Wrinkle in Time (and it's where I got my moniker, too.) and the other books in that series. Haven't seen the movie yet, though it's on our Netflix queue. Is it any good?
I loved the Wrinkle in Time, had my class listen to it on audio, but I didn't know anything about a movie! I will have to look for it.
This series was a fave of mine and a MUST when my daughters were old enough to read. Its a great book to pass on!
You should go to the library and re-read them. I bet you would really enjoy it!
