I have recently found that re-reading my favorite books from my childhood is healthy.
They clear my mind before I go to sleep.
They help my mind to

What a great idea! Reading new books keeps me up because I don't know what's going to come next, and I want to keep reading. But I can see how it's more relaxing to read something you already know you love. (And doesn't keep you in suspense.)
Thats one of the joys of having a kid. Ive been reading Presley books I read when I was little.
this post hits spot on with the post i just wrote. thank you for it. you should read stargirl by jerry spinelli. that will make you feel like you even if you have never read it before.
oh, i love reading my childhood books. the first book i had that "can't put it down" feeling with was black beauty. i remember sneaking out of my bed to read it by the night light.
and yes, stargirl is so good. i should find it again.
