Bookworm Short Stories

[VellfireS]

Bros.. And Sis..

 

Suddenly I remembered my favourite childhood book series.. The Bookworm Short Stories.. Filled with some lame , some funny and some learning point stories.. I wonder if anyone here also used to read them..

 

If I am not wrong.. There was a stingy guy called Louie.. One Smarty,, then a Sam Seng..

 

 

Sorry.. This one for those born in 80's and above I think..

 

Just random memories since I saw one of it lying of the floor..

I was a bookworm club member. All members got a copy of bookworm digest.

I am a member too, and was given a worm shape piggy bank

 

I can't recall the story or character or maybe I never read any of the book. HAha

wow. that's sad. used to be able to read when school library has them or friends bought. otherwise too expensive to collect. content vs price = not worth.
