À mon sujetI started reading when I was 3...and have been addicted ever since. I loved being able to read and sound things out and was almost murdered by my family when I was around 5 I read everything around me...out loud. It didn't matter what it was road signs, boxes, windows...really I am lucky to still be alive. *lol*

À propos de ma bibliothèqueI'll give any book a chance and so have read a little bit of everything so you'll find my library to be an eclectic mix of contemporary, classics and everything in between.
I rate everything I read so anything in my catalog without a rating means its sitting in my ever growing to be read pile.

If you have nothing nice to say about her please, just don't next time.
Please to respond to this, I would LOVE to hear your response.
I want to be a lawyer when I grow up, and would love to discuss this with you.

PS. If you think Jane Yolen "talks down" to her children audiences you have another think coming.

Sorry, but I just got back on the site 3-1, a little late for Santa. But for what it's worth my favorite Sayers is "The Nine Tailors".

Pat

She also did a series of four books that aren't really marketed as a series but almost have to be read in order: Strong Poison, Have His Carcase, Gaudy Night, and Busman's Honeymoon. They are excellent (my personal favorites), but I mostly mention them so that you don't get one of the later ones for someone who hasn't read the earlier ones.
