When I was little (around 4 years old), the thing I wanted the most was Penny's computer book from Inspector Gadget. I used to try to recreate it, using folded pieces of my father's computer paper. I used an orange highlighter to draw the keys and screen. oh, I wanted that computer book. I also liked her little phone screen watch, but the book was my dream.

Wow, I'm doing some serious internet stumbling, but I haven't thought about Penny's computer book in years.
ReplyDeleteI grew up in a tiny town and pretty much the only place for toys was a toy section of the grocery store. Everytime my mom would go there, I would ask her to buy me a computer book if they had one. My mom always said she would check.
I hope she at least got a good laugh out of that.
That's such a cute story! Boy, did I want one of those things. I guess my wish came true TO AN EXTENT. I have an iBook now :) not completely similar, but same idea. yay.
