Nat Geos for the nekkid pics.

Grandmother's trashy romance novels to find out what the birds and the bees were all about.

Also enjoyed the Babysitter's Club and Nancy Drew.

Dr. Seuss

The one with the green pants that had a mind of it’s own freaked me out for some reason.

There were less than 25 Hardy Boys novels when I read them in early 60s. Didn’t know it grew to 58 in all. Thanks.

But not Ferdinand!


When I was a kid I liked to read anything non-fiction involving fish, sea life, all aquatic life, ponds, lakes, rivers, oceans, fishing magazines, books, anything of that nature.

I was the typical "I want to be a marine biologist" kid. I probably should have done that instead of what I ended up doing.

Some mystery books called The Three Investigators. Was a whole series of them. Similar to the Hardy Boys but I liked the Three Investigators better
