Calling all book worms from ‘88?
What were popular works of Juvenile fiction in 1988? I need to know what would have been in the bookstores in 1988 that would have interested a ten year old girl. A bright ten year old girl that has read “James and the Giant Peach”, “Nancy Drew”, and “Little House on the Prairie”. It doesn’t have to have been published in ‘88 just popular than. Anyone from that ERA that remembers what they were longing to read? If you know of children’s fiction from that time too, that would be helpful since this character I am creating has a younger sister. Thanks for the help.
Yep sometimes even researchgirl can’t find what she is looking for. It’s funny, but so often I post questions on here and no one can answer them! I have had many questions deleted because I couldn’t find anyone to help me answer them!
PS Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was published in 1964. Bunnicula was published in 1979. Matilda was in 1988, so that would be a perfect one to use.
PSS I don’t want a list of what was published. I want what you were interested in during that time. I want this character to be as realistic as possible.
