The Magic Next Door

We found it!  This has to have been one of the first books my mom ever read to me.  Gigi and I were digging around in an old bookcase the other day trying to find a place to put all of the Barbie beds because they were just driving me crazy sitting out.  While we were moving stuff around we found The Magic Next Door.  Finding the book was like rediscovering an old memory that had been cherished but long forgotten.  This is such a sweet story, and it has great lines like: "Her hair was spread out on the tufted grass like silk from corn on the cob."  I smiled at every page remembering the images and the story.  What a great find.  This book is a little treasure to me.
