I read a trilogy from the Hickory Grove Public Library about a think called "gundspreaking" (pale, floaty vegetarians lived in treetops; dark, solid meat-eaters had been trapped underground) that turns up zero Google searches. I have no idea who wrote them or what they were actually called, but I could describe long passages of them, and no one I've met has ever read them besides me.

Grunspreking. Zilpha Keatley Snyder: Below the Root (1975), And All Between (1976), Until the Celebration (1977). The world is called Green-sky. I haven't read them in years.

I've read fantasy, mythology, fairy tales, science fiction all my life, and I never thought of it as anything other than completely normal.

Yes.

I lived in a lot of places as a child, and every new school had cool new fantasy books I'd never read before and other kids who read them.

I like that as a summation. I'm glad you can say it!
