I was obsessed with this book growing up & checked it out often from the library. The 1950 #NewberyWinner it‘s about Robin, young son of a nobleman, whose dream of knighthood is crushed when he loses the use of his legs through illness & must find another path. (I guess I could have used it for yesterday‘s prompt as well.🤷🏻‍♀️)

BTW: I first learned the phrase “by hook or by crook” in this book & it‘s always stayed with me. 😉

“Well, it's simple to love someone," she said. "But it's hard to know when you need to say it out loud.”

This was one of my favorite Newbery Medal winners.

#Bibliophile Day 13: This #NewberyWinner is a book about sisters, about the journeys we take to find ‘home‘ (only to discover it within ourselves); it is also about grief and loss and the glittering skies that provide a shining cushion against darkness and pain and overwhelming loneliness.

AmandaBlaze I am so sad and conflicted over the scandal. Maybe one day I can read his books again. 3d
KathyWheeler @AmandaBlaze I am as well. I haven‘t been able to finish season 2 of Good Omens or reread any of his books. 3d
PirateJenny @KathyWheeler I have had many friends tell me Good Omens is much more Pratchett than Gaiman. It's helped me. 3d
