"The Secret Garden":
Once upon a time, in the quaint village of Meadowbrook, nestled between rolling hills and a meandering river, there stood an ancient, abandoned manor. Its timeworn walls were covered in ivy, and its windows were shattered, making it appear like a ghostly relic of the past. But what truly intrigued the village children was the garden that lay hidden behind the manor.

Sphere: Book Review
So Jurassic Park was my favorite book/ movie / slash everything growing up. The book was published in 1990, when I was eight years old but you can bet I read that sucker cover to cover till the movie came out in 1993. I know eight seems a bit young to read Jurassic Park but at the time I was reading several grade levels above my peers and reading almost constantly any book I could get my hands on. I was your typical late 80’s early 90’s dino nerd and loved science. Even in my professional life today I am reading science texts almost daily to keep up with the biology, chemistry and physics classes I teach on the high school level. The book just seemed written for me and I lapped it up. My mother, noticing my interest and always supportive of my reading, immediately went hunting for more Micheal Crichton books.
