jenL Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Oh gosh, so many... When I was really young it was The Pokey Little Puppy and The Saggy Baggy Elephant. Then as I started to read, I loved the Frog & Toad books. For novels, the ones that came to mind are The Secret Garden, Island of the Blue Dolphins, A Wrinkle in Time, Trumpet of the Swans and anything by Judy Blume or Beverly Cleary. It's so wonderful to relive these books with my boys, and I'm cherishing their awe, knowing how my awe affected me as a child. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HRAAB Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 I am happy to see so many other Nancy Drew fans! Does anyone else still have their copies and occasionally go back to them like I do?? I still have all mine; 58 of the hardback books. I've made sure to read some of them to each of dds. I also have all my original Happy Hollister and Trixie Belden books. Noway would I part with them.

KrissiK Posted October 4, 2010 Share Posted October 4, 2010 Oh goodness. Must I choose? I guess the ones I read over and over and over again were the Little House series, Chronicles of Narnia and the Misty of Chincoteague books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Annie Laurie Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 I don't think I could pick just one, but the entire Anne of Green Gables series were very special to me. I remember rushing home from school so I could finish Anne of Windy Poplars. I loved Rebecca Dew! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
