My brother--may his scheming mind rot--has had my parents bring him my Chronicles of Narnia books. Old editions. I think they were the very first paperback editions, actually. The key word here, is my.
With the Narnia film coming in December, it seems that he has decided to try and make a swift bit of money off my book collection. More fool him--they're devalued by having my eight year-old scribbed name on the inside of the cover. But still, they're my books! I trawled round jumble sales to get as many as I could with the same cover art style, and my parents have given them to him without so much as a thought to me.
I now want to race up to Scotland and rescue the rest of my books. I'm really quite upset about this :(
