Hi Dryad, Have just responded to your post about Twighlight and came on here to find something else to respond to. I loved The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe as a child. I remember a teacher reading it to us in primary school. i found myself completely caught up in the magic and particularly loved the idea of walking through a wardrobe full of fur coats and out into a snow filled world. The image of Lucy, stood underneath the lamp is one of my favourites from childhood.
To Billie,
Many years ago 'Testament of Youth' was on the TV as a serial. Again I found myself so caught up in the story that I went out and bought the book. It sits on my bookshelf now still unfinished. I managed to get about two thirds of the way through but was so saddened by everything that i ended up in tears more often than not. In the end I had to stop reading it. I was very young and impressionable, so maybe it is time to try it again through my much more mature eyes?
