“Shadow Castle” by Marian Cockrell

I read this book when I was a child and loved it. It has always stayed with me and I don’t know how I could have parted with my original copy. I didn’t remember the exact title, but managed to find it on the internet as a reprint and Ray bought it for me for Christmas. Reading the comments about this book was fun because a lot of people had had the same reaction to it that I did.

I enjoyed rereading this book. It was fun recalling pictures and stories from when I read it the first time. I could even tell which section was “never before published.” It really is amazing what sticks with us. I even considered naming my son Robin because of this book.
