Childhood nostalgia poll

[rachelmanija]

Please reminisce, fondly or not, about any of these, or other books read in childhood, especially if they seem to have, deservedly or undeservedly, vanished from the shelves. I'd love to hear about non-US, non-British books, too.

I am skipping two pages of comments because I must work! But probably these are mentioned therein, as other favorites even I had forgotten are mentioned in the first two:

I only ever found one Cherry Ames book, but I LOVED the Sue Barton books, also about a nurse, from student days to city nurse to rural nursing.

Mary Stolz! The Betsy-Tacy books. Leonora Mattingly Weber. I have no idea how well these have aged.
