Three Friends

Do you remember your favorite book from childhood?

I didn’t have a favorite book.

My sister did.

And so I found myself picking it up everytime I went to the school Library.

I think she liked it because she was friends with two other girls and together they had a thing… Just like the book.

I hit the search for an image of this book today and I found it… but I was in doubt. There was a photo of two boys and a girl. I thought it used to be three girls.

I called my sister up immediately and she was shocked too. We both remembered it differently.

I sent her some photos I had found and she replied;

This page is so vivid like yesterday.

The mind of a child is so plain, I didn’t think much about the difference in the sex of the friends. I was just excited to read about them as I also was in a threesome friendship, some things come as we grow older

Her favorite book became mine.

  1. Aaaaaw!! This is so emotional, I’m all mushy since I saw this picture. I remember thinking that the girl looked like Kathryn even though it was from behind 😊.
    Thanks for this sis, for always picking it up at the library and today also 😘

  2. Do look a various prints of the book, too. Sometimes, an author can revise their version of a book as well. πŸ˜‰ From the appearance of this print, it does look like this might be the original, but I thought I’d drop that thought anyway. Blessings!
