Well, here it is, Labor Day. I completed 13 of my #14Books14Weeks2021 stack, having skipped The Children of the New Forest. I‘ll get to it, eventually, I do want to read it, but it just keeps getting bumped. I read tons of other books this summer, though! Thanks for hosting @TheHeartlandBookFairy - always a good challenge.

Ruthiella Well done! 👏👏👏 3y

I‘m behind on my buddy read, but hope to finish it the weekend so I can start the next one.

Great quote!

I read this book for the first time. But surprisingly the story felt familiar to me. As I progress I remembered reading the translated version of this book as a kid. I read it in my mother tongue Kannada language ( one of the Indian languages ) It used to be my father‘s text book during his school days 😛 oh I felt thrilled ! I am happy to read the same book now. Thank you very much @TheBookHippie for #childrensclassicread2021

TheBookHippie Oh how wonderful !!! What a gift!!!! I‘m reading a chapter a day with my coffee in the morning and loving it! 3y

YA books have come a long way since this book was written!
One fun part:
I‘m enjoying when the narrator gives us background info, and then says, ‘ Now let‘s get back to the story‘!
I have always liked it when narrators talk to me!
