I'm so glad #doublespin got me to finally read this. It's an absolutely fascinating, bittersweet memoir about a childhood that both was and wasn't the magical one A.A. Milne described. Christopher Milne seems to have made some peace with his unusual fame, though I think his skillful writing sometimes conceals more than it reveals.
1. Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) I feel like that would be an awesome place to spend a few days!
2. Hogwarts (Harry Potter) I think it would feel like home & so many wonderful things to explore.
3. Westeros (Game of Thrones) I think this would be a terrible place to be for anyone, although if I could explore it with Tyrion, it might not be as bad, but still not a place I would go!

pickAfter watching Goodbye Christopher Robin I wanted to know more. The library had this book available. I finished it this morning. A delightful read and for me an insight into the man and the child that was . Well worth a read , a different time and place but we are left with classic poems and stories that no doubt will delight kids for a very very long time. @MrsMalaprop
We just purchased my *almost* dream reading furniture and when I came home the other day, my spouse surprised me by setting up a reading nook in our bedroom, complete with my favorite quilt, made by a good friend, customized to reflect my love of books (the patterns are stacks of books). I may get through The Count of Monte Cristo much faster than I anticipated now 😊📚😍
How lucky am I to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard! 💟
#Milne captures such profound emotions in sich simple words...
