Castle

by David Macaulay is an EXCELLENT book.

An Enjoyable To Read Series

by Johnny Gruelle. If any of have read Raggedy Ann, Raggedy Andy, etc., some of you may guess from the title what this book is about.

Raggedy Ann
Raggedy Andy
Raggedy Ann and the Camel With Wrinkled Knees
Raggedy Ann's Wishing Pebble
There are other books. I have only listed some.

Marcella is the owner of the dolls. Whenever she leaves the room, or is on vacation, the dolls have all sorts of fun. They have a taffy-pull*, rescue Fido, (Marcella's dog,) Raggedy Ann gets washed, (quite an adventure,) and have lots of other fun.

I have read most of the books in this series quite a few times. They're some of the BEST books written in my opinion.


*taffy-pull: I've never partaken in one, but it sounds like TONS of fun!


P.S. These make ABSOLUTELY GREAT read-alouds!!!

Beorn the Proud

On a viking raid in Ireland, Beorn, (the son of a Viking named Anlaf,) captures a Catholic Irish girl named Ness. Despite Beorn's jeering at Ness' Catholic Faith, Ness remains strong, and finally, Beorn is converted!!!!
HURRAY!!!!!!!!!!

The Golden Goblet

by Eloise Jarvis McGraw is a really good book. After reading it once, you'll want to read it again and again. My sister read it also. she really enjoyed it.

Shadow Hawk

by Andre Norton is a great book. It's one of the best books I've ever read.

"'Lord Rahotep-?" There was a familiar slur softening that urgent call. Then a second voice, pitched low, but with the carrying snap of an officer, brushed aside the first inquiry.
'Rahotep! Brother!'
'Kheti'"
