I recently discovered a box full of my old childhood friends. Read the story over at Catapult Magazine and be sure to check out the rest of the issue “Words on a Page.”

It looks like we had a lot of the same friends as a kid.
Such good memories.

Absolutely wonderful and I know just exactly what you mean. My parents were always on a tight tight budget and yet when ever we went to Wal-mart my mom would let me pick out a paper back. I still get an excited feeling in my stomach when I smell that “new book” smell! I also love “old book” smell and have a very nice not-quite-complete Old Nancy Drew collection. If you ever come to my house you’ll see them every where!
