one for me please : teeny tiny people
Do you remember the book (not the movie) called The Borrowers about teeny tiny people that live in the walls and the floors? I loved that book as a child and when I saw this awesome nail art by Alice Bartlett it took me back. I think I'll hunt down a copy and indulge.
You can nab your own copy of The Borrowers by Mary Norton from Fishpond from approx $7.07 AUD or from Amazon from approx $6.99 USD.
What were your favourite books as a child? I'd love to hear!


The Borrowers! Oh I had forgotten about that book! And I think it even was a movie too?!
ReplyDeleteMy first ever favourite books were the "Milly Molly Mandy" books... did you ever read them? I thought that they were SUPER grown up!
Check out the street art of a guy who goes by the name 'Slinkachu'. He published a book about little people in the city, it is awesome.

ReplyDeleteIn primary school I loved the baby sitters club series and tales of a fourth grade nothing by Judy Bloome.
ReplyDeleteI loved 'Anne of Green Gables', 'Six Cousins at Mistletoe Farm' (Blighton) and 'Escape from Meerut'. Some books you just never forget!
