My favorite childhood book was probably Henry and Ribsy by Beverly Cleary.  I loved anything by Beverly Cleary...Ramona, Henry and Beezus, etc.  I love to read because it takes me to another place.  It relaxes me and  just makes me happy!  I love reading good children's novels.  I spend my summer reading books that I can't wait to share with my kids!  Some favorites...Our Only May Amelia, When Zachary Beaver Came to Town, The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane, Ida B., the list could go on and on.  I love to read!
