I don't have the physical copy of the #BookYouveOwnedTheLongest because one of my nieces is borrowing it right now. #Riotgrams

#1993. Through several moves, many of my childhood books were lost. This one is special. This one has my deceased grandma's handwriting in it wishing me "Merry Christmas". I treasure it. ❤️ This lady bought me chapter books before I could read. She challenged my reading and I wouldn't be the reader I am without her influence.

Jess_Read_This @Pam.Kokomo Isn't a great series! I just loved it as a kid! 7y
Jess_Read_This @Texreader Thank you! I had to argue with my first grade teacher that I read Laura Ingalls Wilder Little House on The Prairie. It took me reading aloud a chapter to her to convince her. It's bc of my grandma who had me read it to her and worked through harder words with me. I marvel at her patience! I was a lucky kid. ❤️❤️❤️ 7y

With a family of readers and hand-me-downs, ownership of childhood books is a hotly contested issue among my siblings. To keep the peace, my parents have held on to most of them. This one however, is a favorite and one I absconded with years ago and it's probably the #bookyouveownedthelongest. A wonderful collection of fairytales with the most lovely illustrations, I remember sitting in my room and reading this book again and again ❤ #riotgrams

#riotgrams day 23 - #bookyouveownedthelongest

Getting a little stir-crazy with the constraints of the themes entering into the home stretch of June (definitely not doing 3 of these next month), so I'm declaring it Opposite Day and talking about my #newestbook instead.

The first of some anticipated #bookmail ; always awkward when the last volume arrives first.

#Riotgrams #day23 #BookYouveOwnedTheLongest I have a few books that I've had since I was a uiteenager, but none more old than these three. Magician I was given by the mother of my then boyfriend after I'd borrowed it more than twice to read (it's signed!) The TommyKnockers I was given by my sister & Lord Fouls Bane by my brother. All three are at least 30 years old. They've survived moves, floods, baking heat & dogs.

One of three books I still have from my childhood. #riotgrams #BookYouveOwnedtheLongest One of the others is a very cool pop-up version of Pinocchio.
