Babysitter's Club Series.
|
Charlotte's Web, Stuart Little, and the one about the Swan; A Wrinkle In Time; To Kill A Mockingbird.
|
I loved the Little House on the Prairie series. I also love love love Watership Down (which I still read about once a year). And my sister and I loved the Golly Sisters Go West, which we used to perform as a play for my parents. To this day we refer to ourselves as the Golly Sisters.
|
The Boxcar Children books, Nancy Drew (my grandma had the 1950s version and she let me borrow them), Charlotte's Web still makes me cry... oh, the memories!!
|
Dr. Seuss and the berenstein bear books were great as a child
|
Bonnie Pryor is by far my fav childrens book author. She's a local in my little part of the world and I will never forget when she came to my elemetry school and signed my copy of Grandpa Bear. To this day it's one of my most prized possesions.
Also good was Jumunji, Polar Bear Express, Where's Waldo & If you Give a Mouse a Cookie. |
i was a sucker for the american books like Sweet Valley High and Babysitters Club (I even got a video!) and loved Roald Dahl and the Nancy Drew series.
a creature of habit (which i still am today) i would just read and re-read all of these books over and over again. i am reliving Roald Dahl through my boyfriends kids at the moment. love it! |
I was reading Nancy Drew by second grade.......my stepdad was a big book worm, so I read everything. (the only good thing I can say for my stepdad) Sweet Valley and Babysitters Club were another couple favs. But then I was into steamy romances by 6th grade. (early bloomer:D )
My daughter really loves the Junie B Jones series right now, they really crack me up too! We are working on reading the Little House series and we actually went to DeSmet this summer! |
I've always read anything that I could get my hands on... My favorites were anything Roald Dahl, Half Magic and all those, Babysitters Club (I was obsessed with the extra-long vacation books written from everyone's point of view), and Nancy Drew. I too was reading "potboilers" (as my dad called trashy romance novels) by the sixth grade. There's still nothing like one if I'm having a crappy day.
|
I can't believe I have forgotten so many of these books (Sweet Valley High, the Laura Engles Wilder series). Some of these I may have to pick up again!
|
I totally forgot about Sweet Valley High. Those were some of my fav's as well! Wow!
