Listopia addict esp. out-of-print forgotten books. Prefers dusty, faded secondhand books, especially obscure ones, due to aversion to all marketing and hype. Founded Forgotten Vintage Children's Lit. We Want Republished! Catalogues all known Mabel Esther Allan titles in foreign languages with their corresponding original work. Currently enjoying second childhood and reading midcentury kid lit. The Dark is Rising Sequence is great. The Song of Wirrun books are great. Alan Garner, Penelope Lively, Joan North,...! Reading outside of the current publication cycle is always a good move. You can learn much about human beings and cultural fads and norms by reading older books, too, and secondhand books are eco-friendly. :) Currently promoting my Primary School Puzzlers Listopia list - check out some old-school family-wide interactive content during a Digital Detox.
