It was Christmas 1984. Sinterklass gave me Second Form at St. Clare‘s as part of the Christmas parcel, and I loved it! I read it right away, & told Mum that I wanted to put my new pair of shoes + fresh flowers under the bed again in case Sinterklass was still around for the season, & just hope that he‘d give me the rest of the series. Mum appeased me by promising that she‘d get me the rest. She kept the promise and bought me so many more books 😘
erzascarletbookgasm Oh, lovely! I‘ve not seen these translated editions, only the Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys series. 😊 6y
sisilia @erzascarletbookgasm The translation work was perfect! You can‘t find such proper Indonesian nowadays 😆 6y
