I was a voracious reader as a child (still am). But my options weren't always great since I was also a Navy brat and we moved every few years. When we lived in Sacramento, our house was on the other side of a creek across from a city park that had a branch library. Summers, I spent a lot of time there and fell in love with Charlotte's Web. My 4th grade teacher even wrote in a memory book that she would never forget how many times I read that book.
But my dad was stationed in the Philippines for a couple of years. That was when I discovered series called Judy Bolton mystery series by Margaret Sutton. I liked Nancy Drew too, but she never seemed to grow as a person. Judy did. They're historical fiction now. lol
