CarolynM I can‘t remember which story belonged with which form. Hope this isn‘t an overly angsty one😆 2y
TrishB So much love for these ❤️ 2y
Bookbuyingaddict I used to adore this series as a kid 👧🏼 did you know the bbc have done a series ? You can probably watch it on iPlayer , I adored st Clare‘s too ! Have you also seen the drama adaption of Enid blyton ? Played by the wonderful Helen bonham carter ? Highly recommend it too . Enjoy 😊 2y
squirrelbrain I‘m sure that‘s the cover that I owned…. ❤️ 2y
batsy Oh, lovely! I'm itching to re-read these now. 2y
Vansa Oh my god I literally had the same edition, read to absolute bits 😂 2y
LeahBergen @BarbaraBB She is! 😆 2y
LeahBergen @Ruthiella You are so good to remember that! 😆 2y
LeahBergen @CarolynM I think I‘ll be able to handle it. 😆 2y
LeahBergen @TrishB Me, too! ❤️ 2y
LeahBergen @Karons1 I‘ve watched part of the series but haven‘t seen the Helena Bonham Carter. I‘ll definitely look out for it! 2y
LeahBergen @squirrelbrain @Vansa This cover is the BEST, isn‘t it? 2y
LeahBergen @batsy This is MY reread. 😆 2y
Ruthiella It‘s one of my favorite tags. Right up there with Kittens Against Literature! 😆 2y
LeahBergen @Ruthiella lol! I‘m going to have to remember to tag them (and you!) now. 😆 2y
Cathythoughts Enjoy 🥰🥰🥰 2y

A wintery vintage children‘s read with a side of tea and Cadbury Fingers.

And yes… I did eat three more while opening the packet.

Tamra Good for you! 😋 2y

LeahBergen @Tamra @BarbaraBB I knew you two would have my back. 😆 2y
LeahBergen @Ruthiella Dang, you have an impressive memory. 😆😆 I had to follow the hashtag to see what book I used it on. Yes, this one would fall into that category but to a much lesser degree than the old school stories. 😆 2y
willaful One of my favs, and also my mom's. She used to ice dance and was quite a Lala. 😁 2y
batsy I love this book *and* Cadbury Fingers equally 😆 A lovely photo 💖 2y
Cathythoughts Lovely 🥰 2y
MaureenMc I love everything about this photo. 🥰 2y
LeahBergen @willaful I‘m more of a Harriet. 😆 2y
LeahBergen @batsy 😆 I‘m feeling that way myself right now! 2y
LeahBergen @Cathythoughts Thanks, Cathy! 😘 2y
LeahBergen @MaureenMc Aww, thanks! 😘 2y
willaful The funny thing is, we are both Harriet types generally, but gives us an audience and boom, the inner Lala's come out. 😁 2y
LeahBergen @willaful Love it! 😆 2y
rubyslippersreads Perfect photo! 2y
Centique Ohhhh the cover of that one! 😍 2y

Centique I just want to disappear into some of your book covers a la Mary Poppins 😍 3y
erzascarletbookgasm Love the hashtag! 😁 And your collection is 😍😍😍 3y
LeahBergen @Cathythoughts @erzascarletbookgasm Thanks! This one was especially implausible (blizzards! flash floods!) but still utterly fun. 🤣 3y
LeahBergen @Centique I‘ll jump in with you! 😆 The illustrator of these covers was the sister of the illustrator/author of the Milly Molly Mandy stories (and I remembered that you - and your cat 😆- were big fans!) (edited) 3y
Centique @LeahBergen oh my! You have an excellent memory! I had forgotten that I mentioned my MMM cat already 😂😂 3y
Suet624 Those covers remind me so strongly of my childhood. 3y
