#1993. Through several moves, many of my childhood books were lost. This one is special. This one has my deceased grandma's handwriting in it wishing me "Merry Christmas". I treasure it. ❤️ This lady bought me chapter books before I could read. She challenged my reading and I wouldn't be the reader I am without her influence.

With a family of readers and hand-me-downs, ownership of childhood books is a hotly contested issue among my siblings. To keep the peace, my parents have held on to most of them. This one however, is a favorite and one I absconded with years ago and it's probably the #bookyouveownedthelongest. A wonderful collection of fairytales with the most lovely illustrations, I remember sitting in my room and reading this book again and again ❤ #riotgrams
#riotgrams day 23 - #bookyouveownedthelongest
Getting a little stir-crazy with the constraints of the themes entering into the home stretch of June (definitely not doing 3 of these next month), so I'm declaring it Opposite Day and talking about my #newestbook instead.
The first of some anticipated #bookmail ; always awkward when the last volume arrives first.
#Riotgrams #day23 #BookYouveOwnedTheLongest I have a few books that I've had since I was a uiteenager, but none more old than these three. Magician I was given by the mother of my then boyfriend after I'd borrowed it more than twice to read (it's signed!) The TommyKnockers I was given by my sister & Lord Fouls Bane by my brother. All three are at least 30 years old. They've survived moves, floods, baking heat & dogs.
One of three books I still have from my childhood. #riotgrams #BookYouveOwnedtheLongest One of the others is a very cool pop-up version of Pinocchio.
#bookyouveownedthelongest There's older books in the attic but this is the one I could get too! It's alongside the cuddly toy I've owned the longest! #riotgrams @bookriot
#classicstbr #junebookbugs two very different classics. And I'm not sure if it's physically #bookyouveownedthelongest #riotgrams but The Iliad has been on my tbr the longest 📚
