Re: Your favourite childhood book

Childhood covers about 8 - 10 years and in that time, as we grew up our taste in reading, as our taste in other things to changed.

The Classics: Oliver Twist, David Copperfield, Nicholas Nickleby, Wind in the Willows

In later childhood, Some of the Alistair Maclean novels: The Cruel Sea, HMS Ulysses, San Andreas, Puppet on a Chain.

Felt an empathy with them, for us the 'centre eye' is the third eye all seeing, all knowing, so I was intrigued .......
I wrote as a tragic, yet uplifting story with a happy ending .......

Re: Your favourite childhood book

I loved Heidi but soon moved on to Dickens, especially David Copperfield - I like them all though. Still read now but mostly True Crime!! How times change...
