You’ve got great taste! (My ABSOLUTE favorite book is L.M. Montgomery’s “The Blue Castle”-I read it about once a month when I’ve run out of new things to read after the library closes) I didn’t see any of Patricia Maclachlan’s works in your recommended lists; I adore the “Sarah Plain and Tall” series and everything else I’ve ever read of hers, but especially “Baby” and “Arthur for the Very First Time.” Also, I’m a huge fan of Isaac Asimov, particularly the Foundation series and his short stories.
