Feature and Follow Friday!

Feature and Follow is a blog hop hosted by Parajunkee and Alison Can Read. The purpose is to meet new people and gain more followers in the book blogging community. If this is your first time here, welcome! You are about to make some new friends and gain new followers. But you have to know, the point of this hop is to follow other blogs also. I follow you, you follow me. 

The general rules are: 

- Follow the Feature and Follow Hosts (Parajunkee and Alison Can Read)

- Follow the Featured Bloggers

- Put your Blog name and URL in the Linky thing. You can also grab the code if you would like to insert it into your posts. 

-Grab the button up there and place it in a post. This post is for people to say hi and that they are now following you in your comments. 

-Follow, Follow, Follow as many as you can. The whole point is to make new friends and find new blogs. Don't just follow, comment and say hi in the post! Another blogger might not know you are a new follower if you don't say 'hi'

-If someone comments and says they are following you, please follow back! 

This weeks question: What were some of your favorite picture books as a kid? If you have kids, what are some of your favorites to read to them? 

Well, I'm going to change the question a little and just list some of my favorite books as a kid, not necessarily picture books. (: 

I loved everything Lurlene McDaniel wrote, and I'm pretty sure I read it all, if not most of it! 

These books got me hooked on reading. I had horses growing up, so I loved stories that had anything to do with horses. Plus I always wanted a Thoroughbred and to race like they do in these books. I also felt like I grew up with the MC Ashleigh, too :)
