Mouse and the Motorcycle Book Review
Saturday found me volunteering in the children's section of my library.
As I returned books to the shelves, I was struck with nostalgia to view titles of books that I had read as a child: "The Mouse and the Motorcycle" by Beverly Cleary, "The Phantom Tollbooth" by Norton Juster, "Ozma of Oz" by L. Frank Baum, the "Little House" series by Laura Ingalls Wilder.
Some of these books had recently been handled, perhaps even read and enjoyed, as witness their place among the books that needed to be reshelved. I caught glimpses of others as I returned books to their places in the children's room.
I have been a lifelong reader and these were my earliest finds.
