Default I had to refresh my memory about these...

...but they certainly bring back some memories.

My mother was sick with some kind of flu when I was born so I had a lot of developmental problems as a kid. Education and love of books did not come into play until a teacher Barbara Mitchell at the Earl Wooster High School in Reno, Nevada made me love books by putting a great deal of faith in me and awarding me a Memorial Scholarship in the name of her recently murdered daughter Michelle in 1976.

So I had to look these readers up to see if they brought back any memories which they did. I do remember reading them in Wisconsin before we moved to Reno, Nevada in 1968 or so.
