The memories...

This book has a sentimental value to me. I think it was one of the first ten novels I ever read, and the first one I ever re-read. I can remember reading this over and over again back in elementry school days. I eventually lost intrest in it after a few years, but by the time I had last read it in my younger days, I had read quite a few other novels and it managed to compete.I can remember some of the plot - it happens in Iowa, the main character discovers a beautiful secret carousel, she lives with her grandparents, she has a sister studying ballet and fifth-grade teacher who teaches the class the same way every year. I also remember how the book ends, but I'm not going to spoil it.I saw my old copy around somewhere - when I find it, I will read it again and see what I think of it now.
