My daughter-in-law posted the question on Facebook today, “What books do you think all kids should read?” That made me think, of course, about the Book Reading Lists which AnnaLeah had created. Incomplete and unfinished.
She had a 600-book collection herself — mostly used — and would have acquired more, I’m sure. She loved to give books as gifts to her niece and nephew and read to them often.
Here are some of her lists:
The Braswell Memorial Library in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, where we were living when the crash occurred, donated a book in the girls’ names. AnnaLeah , a booklover, would have appreciated that gesture.
And here is AnnaLeah’s Statement of Faith, which she wrote when she was 12:
Happy Birthday, AnnaLeah!
