Old Favorites
Along the same lines as last week…
Old favorites, books from our childhood. Do you remember yours? I have traditional favorites I suppose. Dr. Suess, Cat in the Hat and all that. There was also The Giving Tree, any book about animals that I could find (hey, I still have my battered copy of a Mammals field guild, LOL), Nancy Drew, I even had a few of The Baby Sitters club.
There comes a time when every parent starts cleaning out their kids “stuff.” You know, years after the “kid” becomes and adult and moves out. I secretly think parents just want all of their space back. Which they should, but I digress. This has been a pattern for a few years. Every so often my old “stuff” finds its way to my house.
Am I the only one who enjoys looking through all that old junk? I talked about memory lane last week. I think your “kid junk” is the holy grail of memory lane.
And I’ll admit that sometimes I’m happy to look at my old junk and quickly get rid of it. I’m only a book packrat, remember?
