A Piece of my Childhood

Today, I woke up feeling worse. I feel like my vertigo is relapsing. I look around my room and suddenly, out of nowhere, I remembered my childhood. My childhood isn't that good though. My friend is not so many, or maybe I don't even have one. What I really remember about my childhood is a library...and books. When I was still in kindergarten, I used to wait for my mom to pick me up. I wait for her in a library near my kindergarten. The library is called Manca. Manca is abbreviation from Omah Baca or Reading House. I don't know why it's called Manca even though there's no 'n' in it, hahaha!

My mind takes me back to that time where I really like being there. There is not so many books there but the books are quite unique. There's one book that I really remember reading it. It is titled 'Lotta' by Astrid Lindgren. It's such a fun book to read. It's about a child called Lotta who has a hard-to-handle personality. Every member of her family got troublesome because of her behavior.

There are 2 versions of Lotta covers in Indonesia but I read Lotta in this cover. 

The sad thing is when I search for the book on many e-commerce platforms, the book is already out of stock. I want to buy the book and re-read it just to remember a piece of my childhood. I remembered sat down in the library and just enjoy reading it. For a kindergarten child like me, finishing a novel is hard to do but I'm done reading it in just 2 days. Lotta is the first novel with one hundred more pages I finished. I hope I can find the book and buy it. Cheers!
