Catching up on my reading in celebration of Children's Book week in the US.
These are some of my books from childhood. I had at least one book for Christmas and birthday every year, they were mostly in plain covers like The Water Babies and the Katy books. How times have changed. 'Cockle Button, Cockle Ben' was a firm favourite. I think I was 6 when I was given it. However unattractive the covers they didn't stop me from becoming a bookworm. The Dimsie books were my Mum's favourites.
