Basic reading. A memory
collection of books, comics, and magazines I read from elementary (McQueeney)
through middle school (Briesemeister). Ranging from very simple to what I would
describe as ‘cusp books’, that would lead to more adult reading. They will come
in batches; some are representative parts of series. Some we had; some we saw
in libraries. Most have appeared on the blog before, but I think arranged here
by category and time they can be more illuminating of certain aspects of my
childhood.
Since the beginning an
appreciation of animals and Nature was always a big element that was encouraged
in us kids. We had Walt Disney’s Wonders of the Animal World since
before I can remember. The publisher’s date is 1964. That animal interest peaked
with our parents getting us The Wildlife Encyclopedia (20 Vols.). I got that book about magnifying glasses because it came with a cheap plastic magnifying 'glass'. Sherlock Holmes!
I can't get Blogger to embiggen these pictures. I'll try again later.
