She gets trapped in a world behind her mirror, and she's not the only one in that world. She has to gather pieces of a precious stone to get back to her normal life on the other side of the mirror.Rosebudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01090882807529262156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2002043022819051569.post-25214021491887379832008-07-10T17:45:00.000-03:002008-07-10T17:45:00.000-03:00Great posts and welcome!Childhood reading is such ...Great posts and welcome!<BR/>Childhood reading is such an enduring memory and yours especially lovely--and Gilberto Gil singing the theme song for the television program?

When my eldest was in midle school and my youngest was in 1st or second grade, I read a book to the family called "Gates of Glass". I can no longer find it, but it kept them on the edge of their seat. <BR/><BR/>My husband wants me to find it to read to him and my Teen-Angel again.<BR/><BR/>I love reading, but not always aloud.Rosebudhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01090882807529262156noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2002043022819051569.post-16451745921939508222008-07-10T14:52:00.000-03:002008-07-10T14:52:00.000-03:00I too love books.

As an adult you will enjoy the book. The chapter on "The Dolls" will have you crying with laughter. In fact they are all excellent chapters. The last chapter, when Peter Fortune enters adulthood is a chapter onits own, my least favourite, but the rest, every one is a gem!mrsnesbitthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16882736507772457598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2002043022819051569.post-90321213642295992802008-07-10T10:25:00.000-03:002008-07-10T10:25:00.000-03:00You must read The Daydreamer to him, when he is ab...You must read The Daydreamer to him, when he is about 9!
