It began at a very young age, my addiction to books. My mom told me a story not too long ago that made me smile. At about 1 year of age, she would get me all dressed up in my cute little dresses. Comb my hair so it looked just right, then she would sit me at my little table with a pile of books. While she got ready for whatever adventure was in store for us that day, I would look at my special treasures. If you could see the pictures from my childhood, you would a book is never too far out of my reach. So, today I will tell you about thirteen of my favorite childhood books (though there are so many more).
