If you've stumbled upon this website, there's a good chance you have nagging memories of a book you read during your childhood. Your memories may be so vague that you're not certain you didn't just dream it up. Or you might remember vivid details about the book's plot and characters - virtually everything except that much-needed title or author.
Some books come up on discussion boards with such surprising frequency, you have to wonder how such a well-loved book could be out of print. And many of them are out of print. However, all hope is not lost.

Gathered together on this blog are some of the most often-requested and well-remembered children's picture and chapter books of the 20th century. Take a moment and browse the title list; maybe one of them will jump out at you. Or, use the search box at the top of the screen. Keywords are included with each book.

Charlotte Sometimes

Charlotte Sometimes
by Penelope Farmer, originally published in 1969.

Summary
After Charlotte's first night at boarding school, the view from the window has changed and the girl in the next bed is not the girl who was there last night. She is a stranger who calls Charlotte "Clare" and says she's her sister. Somehow, Charlotte has slipped back to 1919 and is someone else.
