Children’s/young adult literature genre There’s something therapeutic about rereading favorite childhood books.Literally 20 years later, I finally did and they were just lovely and had so many of the elements that make my inner bookworm beam with delight.

S-T-R-E-A-T-F-E-I-L-D *sob*), but I don’t know why I never got around to Betsy-Tacy. There’s a short scene in the movie where Meg Ryan’s character tells a little girl about the books, and I still remember the line where she regretfully explains that Tib’s real name is Thelma. ![]() I was first introduced to the series years ago by one of my favorite movies, You’ve Got Mail. Last week I binge-read through the Betsy-Tacy series, all ten books plus two others set in Deep Valley ( Carney’s House Party and Winona’s Pony Cart ). ![]()
