My first book group

This looks a lot like my first book group. Ah, reading time in 1st and 2nd grade. Seven of us would sit in small wooden chairs in a semi-circle around our teacher. Would I know as many words as my friends??

What a great discussion leader Mrs. Sheehy was, "Can you guess what Jane will do next?" I loved the stories and couldn't wait to read on.


This is the first series that I read. I wanted to BE Jane and thought Sally was a little pest. I loved Puff. Dick was a mystery as I didn’t have a brother. It was fun to think of our ordinary lives as such adventure.

Thank goodness for that early book group. What a lot of pleasure reading has brought to my life!
