My Favorite Childhood Books

Do you remember these old Raggedy Ann & Andy Books ? If so then I think that you are my age or maybe even older . I had a couple of these books while growing up but they were either passed on to someone else or gotten rid of . These old books are full of beautiful illustrations by Johnny Gruelle . Well , I was at a church thrift store one time and found 10 of these books for only $2.00! I left the store with my brown paper bag full . They are still on my book shelf and occasionally I open one up just to look at the amazing artwork . Some day I may even read one !
