my Book list

I love to read. My dad keeps telling me to keep a book list. My first chapter book was "The Little House in the Woods", then "Farmer Boy", "On the banks of Plum Tree", "By the Shores of Silver Lake", "The Long Winter", "Little Town on the prairie" and "Little house on the Prairie", and "These happy Golden Years". I am a fan of Laura Ingalls Wilder as you see, but I also like many other authors. When I'm done a book I will go back and pick out chapters that I really liked and read them again. "Betsy and the Circus", "Betsy and Tacy", "Betsy, Tacy and Tib", "Betsy and Tacy go down town", "Rebecca of Sunnybrook farm", that was interesting about a girl who was raised on a farm but she moved to the city and found that she liked the farm more so she paid off the manager. My uncle Howard gave me "The Ordinary Princess" Uncle Howard loves books to and usually every family gets a book for Christmas but this book he gave me on my birthday. "Rabbit Hill" I got at the library. "Strawberry Girl" was one of my favorites because it is a story of a little girl who changes the heart of a young man and his family and at the end he jumps up and down on his porch saying "I've been baptized, I've been baptized...alleluia." These are the chapter books that I can remember but the children's books that I read for myself and my little brothers are too many to list. Oh yeah there are the Narnia books "The Uncle and His Nephew","The Lion the witch and the Wardrobe(my favorite) "The Horse and His Boy",and "Prince Caspian" and I have a few more chapters till I get to "The Voyage of the Dawn Treader"

My dad has read us some books too but now that he does the garden we don't always read a chapter before bed. We have read "Miss Hickory", "The Hobbit","The Door in the Wall" then "The Rats of Nihm" which we borrowed from the some friends. And now we are reading "Tales by the Mousehole"

I hope that you all love to read.
