If you could only bring three books to a desert island, which would you pack?
This is a hard question!
- A world atlas to learn where I am
- A journal to write the story of my own adventure
- Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell, I have seen the movie but haven’t read the book
I love that you would bring an atlas! So clever!
