L is for London – Read the World A to Z April Blog Challenge

April 14, 2015 Claire Annette Noland 9 Comments

If it’s Tuesday it is time to find a place that starts with L and what better place than London? There’s just a bit of a problem. There are lots of children’s books that either begin, end, or are entirely based in London. I can’t narrow my choices to just one so I’m sharing a few titles today.

Peter Pan

 

 

mary poppins

 

princess

 

ballet

 

paddington 2

 

Dodsworth 2

 

lion

 

james

 

ruby

 

harry

London

 

I’m sure you have read at least one of these books. Do you have a favorite?Are there additional books you think I should add to the list? If so, jot me a note in the comment section.

Cheerio!

I am having a great time reading posts from fellow A to Z Blog Challenge bloggers. Here are links to posts written by some very creative people:

    London is a very popular city for book setting. I’ve read many among your selection. In a nice way a few are linked to my children.
    Mary Poppins for my oldest daughter.
    Paddington Bear for my second.
    James and the Giant Peach for my third.
    Harry Potter for my son.
    Thank you so much for linking to my blog.

    I’ve read and loved all but three of these – Dodsworth in London, Ruby in the Smoke (loved his Dark Materials series), and This is London. I’d have such a problem choosing a favourite–they all held special places in my childhood and continue to hold special places in my heart..

      There’s a lot of literary places all over England. Hoping to get there before too long.
