*This is one of several books in my collection which I came to know first as movies. The movie is an animated family movie by the same name (1982). I think the reading-level of the book is slightly more advanced than most of the books in my collection, and the book was definitely intended for an older audience than the movie was. I would like to own the movie as well as the book, someday.

*This is another book which I came to know first as a movie. The title of the movie is also The Princess Bride (1987). The saying "Never Judge a Book by its Movie" usually means that it wouldn't be fair to the book, since the movie is usually worse, but in the case of The Princess Bride, the saying could be turned on its head. I own the movie and have seen it over and over again: often enough to have memorized large chunks of it. But of course, how many 80's kids are there who didn't run around the playground yelling: "Hello! My name is Inigo Montoya! You killed my father! Prepare to die!" Everyone has that bit memorized.

*Ms. Norton's many books entertained me for two reasons: they introduced me to the world of science fiction, which is not the focus of this collection, and, they built a believable fantasy world that spanned dozens of books and hundreds of characters and creatures found nowhere else. I remember this book in particular: a man living in the relatively normal Dales of Norton's Witch World discovers that he is a shape shifter, or becomes one my magic (I've forgotten exactly which). He is presented with a belt whose clasp is ornamented with jargoon, a kind of yellowish stone. When he wears it, he becomes a pard: a large, wild, hunting cat. He must learn to live with this new identity, and accept the changes it brings. I identified with this book because shape-shifting was always a daydream of mine. The next best thing to being a bird, in my opinion, would be to be a powerful feline. Felines can't fly, but I've always been a cat person.

*Pullman's His Dark Materials trilogy was recommended to me by a former bookstore co-worker, and luckily, my brother happened to have a copy of the first book lying around. I'd heard mixed reviews, so I was a little skeptical. Nothing could have prepared me for the story Pullman tells in his trilogy! He creates an exceedingly strange universe in which theology is turned on its head, reality is made of a stranger fabric than you would believe, and where humanity, death, and maturation are all explored in a plot as sweeping and interwoven as any novel could possibly be. When I began reading The Golden Compass, I felt like I was holding my breath, waiting to see whether I would like this strange concoction of things and places and people and events. Above all else, it was interesting. (Apparently, it is interesting enough to captivate young readers to hang on to the end of the 500 page conclusion to the trilogy, although all the books seem a little mature for the 9- to 12-year reader old age range of my book collection.) All in all, highly recommended. Pullman's trilogy His Dark Materials is engrossing, captivating, consuming, enthralling, exciting, fascinating, gripping, intriguing, riveting, and spellbinding, all rolled into one.
