When we were 12 year olds Internet did not exist, we viewed the world very simplistically... these days most 12 year olds know about everything

I will try and write one now
Nisha...very true...I started of reading Famous Five...i loved Enid Blyton stories...all the children gang stories...and then when in high school started reading Hardy Boys, Nancy drew only a lil...Hardy boys case files were my fav. Now when I used to see new books in library, I used to wonder what this author is still alive, how many books has he written.
thank u for enlightening us abt the reality.
I loved C. Rajagopalachari's Ramayan and Mahabharat. I got it as a gift...and read it n of times. but i have forgotten so many lil things of the epics.
M&B I started reading when I was doing my PU...I still blame them for getting less marks in pU
Now I have stopped reading them (from past 6-7yrs)...my hubs hates them, and my kids are around. I cringe if see some romantic scenes when they r around, but I suspect they will know more than what i knew when they reach the pre-teen yrs.
