jf1970 328 Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 I'm sure most of us were read books when we were at school, I can remember bookS called THE RUNAWAYS and THE FLIGHT of THE GREY GOOSE. both written by victor canning, I was having a wee look on amazon and I'm only after finding out they were part of a trilogy with the last one called THE PAINTED TENT ( I don't remember that one) I think I will have to buy them, what books do you remember when you were younger?

Huan72 687 Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 The Call of the Wild by Jack London and the Old Man and the Sea by Ernest Hemmingway. Both fantastic books and I am sure played a part in my love of nature, dogs and the sea Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bosun11 537 Posted January 2, 2014 Report Share Posted January 2, 2014 Also, The Boy With The Bronze Axe and White Buffalo, these I read in junior school. Round about the age of 11, I found Cider with Rosie along with The Moon's A Balloon and The Happy Hooker. Though the last two weren't school books, both I feel, really shaped my future!
