One of my all-time favorite books.

[heatherhistorian]

Mine too. I wondered if posting children's books would be silly, but I love this book and Johnny Tremain.

[Roaring Bull]

yep, read Johnny in grade school....I think it was....been a while ago!

[heatherhistorian]

A little while ago.  I try to get my daughter to read it, but she won't.  Makes me sad.  I want to share that book with her.  My son is too young still.  Another book I like is Across Five Aprils.  It is a Civil War era book.  Read it?

[Roaring Bull]

No but once I finish my associates degree I am going to get to reading more of the things I want to read instead of have to read.

[heatherhistorian]

Totally understand that.  It is nice when you finish and CAN read what you want.
