Timeless Choices for a New Generation
Amy Scheibe, author of the novel What Do You Do All Day? and a longtime book editor, joins us as our new children's-book columnist. Her first piece focuses on her favorite books for kids. When I was little, I read a lot, but some books meant more to me than others. I grew up in the wilds of North Dakota, so for the most part my three siblings and I borrowed books from the library or the bookmobile, although our family occasionally made it to the bookstore in Fargo. I reread my favorites so many times that they are indelibly stamped on my memory. I can even remember where I was sitting or what I was wearing when I read some of them. Now that I have two kids of my own — Bo, 6, and Hedda, 3 — I’m collecting new editions for them as I rebuild my childhood library.
