The Notebook

The Notebook by Nicholas Sparks

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

If you loved the movie, you will love the book. The movie is fairly faithful to the book's story line. For those who love a chick-flick, they will love the book. Having seen the movie before reading the book, however, I already knew of the twists and turns the story line takes. After reading the book, I sort of wished that I had read the book before I saw the movie.

Childhood Songs

PLAYING HORSIE
I came across the original lyrics for "Playing Horsie." The song is actually titled "I Faw Down An' Go Boom." Here are some sites that are interesting about it. This site has lyrics, and here is a YouTube video of an old recording.

CHIEF BUCKABOO
Chief Buckaboo (as Mom remembers it, although it is really called Chief Bugaboo) was really called Indianola. You can find the lyrics here.

OH PLAYMATE, COME OUT AND PLAY WITH ME
Mom mentioned another song she can remember Grandma Gilbert singing: "Oh Playmate, Come Out and Play With Me." I found these websites: This one has music and lyrics while this one has lyrics.
