One of my favorite photos I‘ve ever taken of my oldest childhood favorite books. The middle one is the oldest one I own (1930‘s) and also an original text. The watches were my grandfather‘s ❤️

Chrissyreadit I‘m still angry at myself for giving away my Nancy Drew Books. 7y

Jess_Read_This @mabell Thank you!! ❤️ He and my grandmother were my biggest supporters in reading. They bought me all my first books and had me read to them every time they visited. 7y
Laura317 I think I have another cover for that book my sister-in-law didn‘t want. If I do, would you like to have it?@Jess_Read_This 7y
Jess_Read_This @Laura317 Oh my gosh! Yes, please! That would be amazing. I would really appreciate it! 7y
Chrissyreadit So glad you shared this picture too! It also brought back many wonderful emotions and memories... just saying cause my response earlier was a bit terse. 7y
Jess_Read_This @Chrissyreadit I completely understand... I told my mom it was ok to donate all my Boxcar Children books. 😭 It still guts me that I did that. I‘m glad the pic brought back some good memories for you. ❤️ 7y
mrp27 Great photo! 7y
kindergartenkat the right - hand one is the one I read 😊 7y
bookandbedandtea Lovelovelove this picture! I still have my whole set (the version on the right) but no other covers/editions. These are lovely. 7y
Jess_Read_This @kindergartenkat A great edition!! ❤️ 7y
Jess_Read_This @bookandbedandtea That is so neat you have the entire set! I‘m piecing together my yellow matte set and the original text ones. I only had a few from childhood and the rest were library ones bc my parents told me I read too fast and they couldn‘t afford my habit. It was cheaper to drive me to the library.. 😂 7y
bookandbedandtea @Jess_Read_This My grandparents bought them for me. Over several years, unfortunately, but I never seemed to lack for reading matter in between. My parents both like to read so they didn't mind buying books for me. I'm so glad I kept this set. I only kept a few other of my childhood books; wish I had known how much I'd still value them now! 7y
Jess_Read_This @bookandbedandtea So true! I wish I had know the same thing! 7y
JaclynW I SO love this! ❤ 7y

This is the oldest children's book I have with me, that my parents bought for me in 1990. It's in pristine condition except for a 'this book belongs to' sticker on the inside. Most of my childhood books are in storage, where I have the Enid Blyton Mallory Towers series published in around 1965 that were handed down to me #24in48 #firstchallenge #hour6 #readingnostalgia
