I loved it–in fact I’ve loved all of Gene Stratton Porter’s books so far. I had the chance to visit one of her homes. If you search her name in my search box, you can see it.

Wow, a few of these I’ve never even heard before. The only one I’ve actually read is Anne of Green Gables… I don’t know how I haven’t managed to read Peter pan at the very least. 🙂

Makes me homesick for that historical period. So much has changed in 100 years … good memories of that day at the Limberlost!

PETER PAN. That is my FAVORITE book cover for any Peter Pan ever. It’s so gorgeous. I have a copy because I couldn’t possibly pass that up. Also, I love Anne of Green Gables. I haven’t read many of the others, though.
Great idea for the prompt this week!
