Title: Thank you , Couz!
Review: It had to be around 1974-75, I was 8 or 9 yrs old. My cousin Cookie, who was 2 yrs older, gave me this book and said it was really good. This was my first chapter book, as I called it. Up to this point I read Dr. Suess, Maurice Sendak, Curious George, Madeline, The Fire Cat and other similiar books. Liking, but not loving them. One of the hundreds of reasons I love Cookie so much is that she gave me the book that made me fall in love with books. Once I read A Taste of Blackberries it was on to Paul Zindel & Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys Mysteries in no time. I was moved by the story but I have been afraid of bees every since I read it!I am now 45 years old and have been an avid reader of all genres of books throughout my life. I have since instilled in my daughters the love of books by suggesting good reads, as was suggested to me by Cookie.
Is the review positive or negative?
