I loved the Nancy Drew series, the Anne of Green Gables series, Let The Circle Be Unbroken, The Phantom Tollbooth, The Secret Garden, The Little House series... One of my most favorites for kids roughly my age is Who's A Pest by Crosby Bonsall (http://www.amazon.com/Whos-Pest-Homer-Story-Read/dp/0439472520/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1348688351&sr=8-1&keywords=who%27s+a+pest)<br /><br />I can't wait for my kids to be old enough to enjoy all of those books and so many more.

I can remember reading the last book in the series in class and tearing up when a character we all thought was dead returned. It's a wonderful fantasy series that will always remind me of being young. I still have my copies and I can't wait to read them with my kids. <br /><br />robpyatt@gmail.com<br /><br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02867540045539606485noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36263599.post-51599090170525035352012-09-26T13:56:18.796-04:002012-09-26T13:56:18.796-04:00My mom had this collection of Grimm's fairy ta...My mom had this collection of Grimm's fairy tales from when she was a kid. The real ones, the actual stories not the ones that have been doctored up now. We used to love picking fairy tales out of the book for her to read to us<br /><br />angiewith3 at live dot comAngie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11875965090243148074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36263599.post-17042088261663610652012-09-26T13:24:59.418-04:002012-09-26T13:24:59.418-04:00One of my favorite childhood books was "Maggi...One of my favorite childhood books was "Maggie Adams, Dancer" I wrote to the author (Karen Strickler Dean) and she wrote me back! We were pen-pals for awhile, which was really really cool.<br /><br />Another book I adored was about a boy who became blind in a firecracker accident. I don't remember the title. What is strange is that I typically wouldn't pull a book like that for my kids since I'd think it would be too much of a "downer" and yet I picked it myself when I was young. Funny how that happens.<br /><br />My youngest just started reading a historical fiction novel with a ghost in it, so I bet he'd love the Ghost Buddy series!<br /><br />karianna@karianna.usKariannahttp://www.kariannaspectrum.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36263599.post-23969241924289990282012-09-26T12:38:03.196-04:002012-09-26T12:38:03.196-04:00My favorite childhood book was The Secret Garden. ...My favorite childhood book was The Secret Garden.

Read that sucker over and over and over again. Now the idea of being stranded on a deserted island has a charm all its own, particularly if I get to wear a skirt made of cormorant feathers like the gal in the book!rebeccaeeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07336435778965955548noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36263599.post-57865685271963783342012-09-26T12:24:25.261-04:002012-09-26T12:24:25.261-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.rebeccaeeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07336435778965955548noreply@blogger.com
