Shadrach and The Wheel on the School 😍🥰 I absolutely loved these 2 as well when I was young 🥹
Ohhhh, that makes me smile 😊
He felt so unknown and obscure so I love finding others who know of him!
Congratulations!! BOOKTUBE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION 🔥 Love this
Thank you, Friend
This was wonderful! I remember reading some of these as a child, but you introduced me to some that I have not read, so I've added them to my TBR. I'm 61 years old but I still love reading middle grade books. ☺
I’m so glad you found some! I’ll be 54 in 2 months & I still love to read them too!🤗💗
This is a great way to celebrate, my favorite EB White is Charlote's Web. ( i found the book I had as a kid and snapped it up.)
I have both these books from when I was a child; Heidi and Heidi Grows up, they were a present from my Mom, they were her favorites too. My poor Heidi has seen better days so I bought a new one, I still have the one from my Mom though, I will never give it up. My first book was The Bobbseys Twins, it is excessively loved.
I first saw The Rescuers and The Rescuers Down Under in the animated films and then bought the books.
I fell in love with The Secret of Nimh, I love the movie too.
I first saw this as a live action tv show; The Borrowers, I bought the book and like you I fell in love.
I have always loved watching about the revolution, so I had this as a child; Paul Revere's Ride and then I saw Bert Convey play him on episode of Bewitched.
My Dad got me a series of these books, so I had; John Paul Jones, Davy Crockett, Martha Washington, I don't have them any more unfortunately and I have never run across them. Thanks for the memories.
Ohhh, Sherri, I love that your Mama gifted you with her favorites🥰
My son has all the history stories now. I hope his boys love them like he did.
I wasn't allowed to watch movies when I was growing up, so it was all books for me, until I was 12 or 13. (I did see some before then, but few and far between - Bambi and then Star Wars and then Grease... Weird progression 🤣)
It's been so fun for me to remember too, so I am glad you are enjoying it.🥰
Thanks@@novelideea my parents loved to give us books, it was always a gift on our birthdays and holidays. In fact my Mom told me about Jo's Boys when i was a teen, I had never heard of that one, we went hunting for it together in the bookstore, my Dad paid attention to what we loved on TV that came from a book and we would get them on the next occasion, (we weren't rich so gifts were always on occasions. (In fact my Dad was a salesman and he got a lot of green and blue stamps back in the day, it was how our family got alot of our gifts.) So if I was watching Ellery Queen, he got me a stack of Elley Queen books and yep, I still have them. Oh, not even Disney movies? The Rescuers was a pixar movie but that is the same thing. I watched a lot of Disney movies as child, back then you had to wait till they were brought back to theaters and go out to the movies. Many happy memories in Dad's station wagon at a double feature, in our jammies with my Mom's snacks watching a double feature of Bednobs and Broomsticks and Mary Poppins. At least you saw Bambi, but I have to say it scared me, the fire and his mother being killed broke my heart. I guess I gushed on enough, thanks for bringing up my old memories.
@@sherrirabinowitz4618 You just reminded me of a time my mom took us to a drive in movie! 🍿 it was Cat from outer space!
We were single parent household on welfare So we didn’t have tv and didn’t go to movies. We were given a tv later but only watched what was free with the rabbit ear antenna🤭😁
When I was a teen and earned my own money I went to movies 😊
Love these videos! It's bringing me back to my childhood and it's giving me great ideas for my nephews and my friends kids when they are all old enough to read with me. I pray all of them find a love of reading but I'll be happy with some. I hope to start a Bookclub with them to keep them motivated 🥰
It’s making me wistful to think through these and I don’t mind a bit ❣️🥰
What a great plan! I hope it comes about just so 🤗
what riches...a delight to revel in them...i remember having to bring little women back to the library over and over to renew it as it took me so long to read it..i think that and lassie come home were my favorites..along with so many series..the bobbsey twins for starters and as an adult i named my first cats freddie and flossie in their honor.
We loved Bobsey Twins too! And little women is coming, I promise!
@@novelideea looking forward to it.
I loved the Ramona books when I was young. I think I read Trumpet of the Swan because it sounds so familiar, but I don't really remember it. I think I read Heidi too. I adored The Phantom Tollbooth. I read it again a few years back and I liked it even more as an adult. Last year I listened to The Bunnicula books and I'm so glad that I enjoyed them because I was always so nostalgic about them. I smiled through them as I listened.
It's such a gift to be able to experience something and still find joy in it!
Phantom Tollbooth definitely has things that go over your head as a child that you pick up on later! I love when that happens!
There’s a few on here that I can’t wait to check out. Sooo many of these are dear friends to us too, Deea! Classic children’s literature has soooo many gems!!!! I need to reread some with my younger children!
I’m enjoying hearing my oldest grandchild reacting to some of these for the first time. Her world is expanding along with her heart and her ‘friend’ group 🥰♥️
Trumpet of the Swan is still my favorite of his books. I’m definitely putting Captain Courageous on my must read list!
I hope you love it like we do!💗
Deea I love Captains Courageous too!!! I need to reread Watership Down. Yay on Trumpet of the Swan! I have never read The Children of Green Knowe...its on my list!. So many of these are on my list but you have introduced me to a few that I did not know about! Thank you!!! I loved Thimble Summer so much!! We read George McDonald's The Light Princess and really loved it, but I still need to read The Princess and the Goblin etc. Mrs. Frisby is a huge favorite!!! Wonderful video!!
Oh my goodness, Heather! You are one of a handful of people I know of that have read Captains Courageous ❣️
Green Knowe 🥰 I wish I could experience it for the first time again! Tolly and his Great Grandmother are simply irresistible ♥️
Glad I’m giving you some discoveries (you’ve done that for me so often!)
Such nostalgia with these! I loved the Boxcar Children as a kid and our family loved the new + old versions of the Borrower movies. I had no idea it was a book and I kind of want to check it out now :) Thank you for this!
There is something about not having the screen in front of your eyes and reading about how they built they’re beds or what they used as art that made me look at the world in a miniature mindset🤭
I began questioning if “they” could use it, was it something they could repurpose?😂 Hours of delight directed study!
Love this!! @@novelideea
Sure does take me back 🥲 agree completely, The Trumpet of the Swan is my favorite of his. I have been wanting to reread Lloyd Alexander books. Yep, I was all about American Girl books! Haha
Who was your favorite American Girl?
I have a few Alexander books I’ve never read that I want to pick up!
@@novelideea Molly! I was all about Molly. I think because she had glasses. 🤣
I would love to read Heidi. It’s a classic I’ve had my eye for awhile.
You are really going to love it!
Ah! You've inspired me to immediately get to one of these I picked up at indie bookstore day last year!
I also have a lovely copy of the Golden Key that is really beautiful I haven't read, maybe that one soon.
Which one did you pick up last year?
The Golden Key is one of those fairytales that walks the line of “what?” & “Oh, my heart!”
@@novelideea I got a 2nd hand hardcover of Trumpet & the Swan! Definitely used, but in okay condition.
Trumpet of the Swan wins for me too out of all the E.B White books! 😊
How dare you forget Felicity! 😂Just kidding! Samantha is my favorite and it’s my daughter’s favorite too.
@@kellireadsalot we loved Felicity’s accessories! They were so wonderful! Her horse, and her bed with curtains -*sigh*
I found a Rebecca and a Samantha(unfortunately she didn’t come in the outfit from Meet Samantha but her birthday outfit) doll in like new condition on FB Marketplace. And someone just gave us a like new Josephine because their daughter didn’t want it! So we have a little America Girl crew over here. 😊
I don't know if I've ever read a single book on this list 😅 but then, I don't really remember what we read when I was little and I know we read a lot, so maybe.
Really? There are a few I’d love to be able to read for the first time again ♥️
4:57 The Saturdays I want to read this series
It’s so fun
I have no recollection of any of those for myself but i know i read many of them to my boys for school readslouds or free reading. (The Wheel on the school; Boxcar Children, Ramona and Beezus, The Borrowers(
What were your boys’ favorite books growing up?
@@novelideeamy older son devoured The Boxcar Children and the Ramona and Beezus books. I think he liked the Hardy boys a bit but he loved the Warrior Car series.
Before MG lots of Curious George and Harry the dirty Dog. Before that Goodnight Moon and lots of Dr Seuss and the Jan Brett books.
And I do remember reading Charlotte's Web myself and my boys enjoyed that as a read aloud when they were elementary age. My oldest might have read it again himself. I kept shelves of books plus always at the library.
@@Thecatladybooknook_PennyD Warrior Car series? I have never heard of that one! I'll have to go look for it. Is your younger son the one who is more the math/science type?
@@novelideeano that's my older one. My younger was a late reader and didn't fall in love with it like my older did. He liked readalouds a lot but my younger didn't enjoy reading sadly.
The Warrior Cats is by Erin Hunter. Into the Wild is the first one.
Great video! Also, have you done something to your hair? You’re gorgeous 🫶🏻
I cut it. Added some layers - you’re the first one to ask!😂♥️
