"Do you have a favorite author? Who? Why? Tell about a favorite book as a child, youth adult.
My all time favorite author..the person I could read forever, is probably David Eddings, a well known fantasy writer. When I was in middle school and early high school, my upbringing reflected a rather harsh hand by my parents. I needed a world of my own, of escape, where I freely roamed the land. Eddings gave me those worlds.
I'll never be able to thank him enough.
As a child, my fovorite books were Cars and Trucks (learned how to go potty reading that one!), the Chronicles of Narnia, story of The High King, and others of that ilk. Any world but the one I lived in suited me rightly.
