Holy cats, a veggie thief! This must be investigated thoroughly.

"I want to remember everything. And I want to know everything."

"Well, you must realize, Harriet, knowing everything won't do you a bit of good unless you use it to put beauty in this world. True or false? "

"True."

"Good friends are one of life's blessings. Don't give them up without a fight."

"You know what? You're an individual, and that makes people nervous. And it's gonna keep making people nervous for the rest of your life. "

"There are as many ways to live in this world as there are people in this world, and each one deserves a closer look."

"I will always have a notebook."


When I was a little girl I wanted to be Harriet the Spy. In some ways, I still do. ★

    Harriet the Spy was so awesome! I also really loved Nancy Drew. I fancied myself as quite the young investigator as a child! :)

    Reminds me of Nancy Drew, but Harriet is way much cuter.

    Oh my goodness, I absolutely LOVE Harriet The Spy. The movie and the book. I have about 30 half-filled composition notebooks lying around from when I was little, and an entire spy kit, cause I wanted to be just like her :D

    I loved loved this movie, and I guess I'm still trying to be more like Harriet in that I still keep notebooks and try to be as observant as I can about my surroundings.
    Thanks for posting this! :)

    I want to be her too!!! I mean, did. I DID once a long time ago want to be her. Not anymore. Cause I am too old for that. *cough*

    I also devoured every Nancy Drew book and wanted to be her, too.

    *sigh*

    We should always have the spirit, because this makes the mature soul more gentle...

    I have never known Harriet the Spy because I was not raised in English- speaking country... but this looks so classic to me. Very nostalgic.

    harriet! when i saw the movie i immediately made my own "spy kit" and tried to find a yellow raincoat to wear around everywhere :) i also tried to pretend that i loved eating tomato sandwiches, when i really actually hated them, hehe. ah, the things we do as children.
    thank you for your kind comment<3
    the font is not my handwriting, i wish it was, though! it's a mixture of two fonts, one is called amandine, and the other is called julies or jules, i can't remember. i use that one for the hearts over the i's <3
