good golly!
isn't escaping to another world in a book just the loveliest thing?!
of course i was fascinated to hear which book characters all of you lovelies out there longed to be in our younger years!
what a fabulous cast of characters we have at our slumber parties! we'd make for a most entertaining bunch of young ladies, wouldn't you agree? { and based on some of our faves, get in a heap of mischief, too! }
....................................
the most popular response was certainly lovelies longing to be laura from the little house on the prairie books. seems like those pioneer adventures (and pigtail braids!) had janet, rox, ilena & candied fabrics enamoured!
....................................
another fave was the jane austen protagonist elizabeth bennet. and that dreamy mr.darcy would be yours: vadjutka, artmind & freckles!
....................................
a favourite i had forgotten about was pepper sprout designs & denny's fave: that precocious pippi longstocking. (more great pigtails, too!)
....................................
harriet the spy was karamae's fave. i always love a good sleuth, too, karamae!
....................................
and just to make sure our slumber party mysteries had enough sleuths, jessica & little gray pixel longed to be nancy drew. *sigh* me too, nicies. me too!

Oh these are fun to read! I forgot about Harriet the Spy. My daughter loves that series, too!
ReplyDeleteWe would make for a precocious bunch!!!!
Thanks for including me.
Thanks for mentioning me here! This was a fun trip down memory lane. I STILL love to read. What a great escape and visit to other "worlds." Now I still love mysteries. I belong to a book club and we just read Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Wouldn't have been my first choice, but it was fun to read, and talk about ESCAPE!
ReplyDeleteK--Thanks for doing this!

I didn't remember answering this but I saw the post and thought of Harriet the Spy hiding in someone's fireplace, then scrolled down and.. oh!
ReplyDeleteFun post, good blog.
I loved your slumber party!
ReplyDeleteI see I've missed reading many great books - so good to see 'em listed here so I can still catch up! :)
Thank you for including me, RR!
ReplyDeleteI meant to add the Babysitter's Club series, too. Loved those!!! :*>
I'd forgotten about Harriet the Spy! I loved her.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the mention. The fabulous thing about living where I do is I'm right beside all those beautiful stately homes in all my favorite books and I can wander around my 'Pemberley' and imagine I'm Lizzie.
oh gosh
ReplyDeleteanne and laura were my favorites. i still reread them
Heheheh, so many soulmates here :-)
ReplyDeleteBut -I knew that Mitsy from Artmind is a close soulmate :-)))
I could not get enough of Anne of Green Gables and Swiss Family Robinson as a kid!
ReplyDeleteThoroughly enjoyed this post, a great trip down memory lane :)
Gilbert....oh how I loved him (and still do). Swoon is right! Thanks for the mention!
ReplyDeleteCheers
