Clover Jinx Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Maddy mentioned her favorite illustrated childhood book in a thread I got bored with after Patch stopped posting. Here's mine: I still have it out on my bookshelf. You can tell a lot about a person by what's on their shelves, almost as much as digging through their garbage. =<.<= =>.>= 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I'll need to pick this one up. Edited September 4, 2018 by moirakathleen 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dillon Levenque Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 I know someone who should be almost ready for Mercer Mayer; I'll pass that along to her dad. He himself was very fond (as was I) of the Trumpets. I was always on the lookout for those. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madelaine McMasters Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Another of my favorite childhood books is "Art Afterpieces" by Ward Kimball, one of Disney's "Nine Old Men"... http://art-for-a-change.com/blog/2013/07/ward-kimball-art-afterpieces.html My exposure to this book explains why I tamper with people's SL photographs. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhonda Huntress Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 My favorite childhood book .... We did not have any children's books growing up. The Sunday comics are the closest I had. The first few books I remember reading were in Middle School; I was in to Ray Bradbury's short story books like R Is For Rocket and S Is For Space. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alice the TV show? “Ask Alice” from “White Rabbit”? According to Wikipedia: In chapter 7 of Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, the Dormouse tells a story of Elsie, Lacie, and Tillie living at the bottom of a well, which confuses Alice, who interrupts to ask what they ate for sustenance. "The Dormouse again took a minute or two to think about it, and then said, 'It was a treacle-well.'" This is an allusion to the so-called "treacle well", the curative St. Frideswide's Well at Binsey, Oxfordshire. http://www.alice-in-wonderland.net/resources/chapters-script/alices-adventures-in-wonderland/chapter-7/ Edited September 7, 2018 by Maureen Boccaccio 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
