About a month ago I posted a Call for Guest Bloggers on AmoxCalli to review and recommend those wonderful old books we grew up with, books I consider classics of kidlit. I got some responses and lists of books people wanted to review which were fantastic. I knew of most, some I had never heard of and I’m looking forward to finding out more. I’m pretty excited about this new series, The Classics of Kidlit.
A couple of days ago, Liz B posted a link on her blog, A Chair, A Fireplace and a Tea Cozy (one of my favorites) to my Call for Guest Bloggers post and already I’ve recieved some lovely comments and responses with even more lists of great books. Today, another lovely comment from Becky at Farm School Blog as well as a post on her site about the series.
To all of you who responded to my call, to Liz for nudging it along, to all you wonderful bloggers, librarians, homeschoolers and everyone that loves YA and Kidlit, thank you, thank you, thank you! It’s been a dream of mine to do this and I so appreciate everyone’s contribution to that dream. I’m so looking forward to your wisdom, your insight, your wonderful ways of seeing things in books and most of all, sharing those great books and your thoughts about them.
If I missed anything or anyone, let me know.
This is going to be so much fun!
Gina
You’re welcome!
That children’s classic Anne of Green Gables had that lovely description, “kindred spirit”, and I think those of us who enjoy the classics of kidlit figure we’ve found one in you and AmoxCalli, Gina…
