My mother always insisted that, as soon as I was old enough to sit up, she’d find me in my crib after my nap babbling away, with a Little Golden Book on my lap. I’ve had my nose in a book ever since. I grew up in a small town, with the tiny town library literally in my backyard. As an only child in an unhappy home, I found comfort and companionship in books.
As an adult I wanted to be Harry Potter, although I admit I’m more Hermione. My life has been a series of research projects. Reading has taught me that human lives are deliciously messy and that “it’s complicated” isn’t a punchline.
Way to go. I am going to copy your idea on my blog, if you don’t mind as a wrap up for Banned Books Week. Excellent choices in articles. I found a good thought in each of the articles.
I’m glad to see your post, Anne! We can help raise awareness about what’s going on, all 52 weeks of the year.
