I had lots of toys and books and records as a kid, but apart from the records from SLEEPING BEAUTY (Darlene Gillespie singing; there was no soundtrack album released then) and the Colorforms SLEEPING BEAUTY set which I played with long after SLEEPING BEAUTY was a memory, I can't remember anything that followed me into the teen years.
My Nancy Drew books were read and then stored in my closet, but when I got to college, I found out my roommate was a big Nancy Drew fan, too, so I began pulling them out of the closet and re-reeading some of them again. Years later, when I bought my house and had room for them, I went back home and learned that my mother without my knowledge of concent had given my complete Nancy Drew collection to the Girls' Home in town. While it was thoughtful for them, I was so hurt. Anyway, I began rebuying my favorite ones, but many had different covers. I found a few on Ebay fairly recently that were the same as I had, and I got them to fill holes in the collection.
