“Most of the things that I remember from childhood wouldn't make a particularly good story: rescuing worms during rainstorms, our schnauzer attacking a wheel of cheese when someone dropped it during dinner, my parents tricking us into riding Space Mountain at Disney World (we thought it was an educational people-mover kind of ride), playing Star Wars (I got to marry Harrison Ford and my sister married Luke Skywalker) in first and second grade. On the other hand, we always had lots of interesting babysitters--seminary students and friends of my parents--who told really good ghost stories.” PeopleWorldFirstsKindWarStoriesHandsRememberStarsParentSpaceInterestingChildhoodStudentsMountainMarriedEducationalDinnerGhostWheelsGradesMy SisterRidingCheeseWormsAttackingGood StoryLukeGhost StoriesBabysitterSeminaryRainstormsSchnauzers Author:Kelly Link
“I remember my fourth grade teacher reading 'Charlotte's Web' and 'Stuart Little' to us - both, of course, by E. B. White. His stories were genuinely funny, thought provoking and full of irony and charm. He didn't condescend to his readers, which was why I liked his books, and why I wasn't a big reader of other children's' books.” ChildrenLittlesBookStoriesBigsRememberCoursesReadingWhiteTeacherReaderIronyCharmGradesThought ProvokingFourthProvokingChildren's BooksCharlotteFourth GradeFunny ThoughtsCharlotte's Web Author:Louis Sachar
