Answer 1

Anything Cat in the Hat. Some lovely person gave my kids the whole boxed set for a christening present. Now all I do is read cat in the hat all day. Exhausting work with all those tongue twisters in them, lol.

I actually posted a question over in polls and surveys one time:

See, they are sending me mental, those cat in a hat books! The question went down well though, LMAO.

Answer 6

Well I don't have any kids but I can tell you what my favorite books to read when I was younger. I'm fifteen now and I remember the first book I learned to read was Goldie Locks and The Three Bears and Little Red Riding Hood - but this was in German. I remember I would bring out my book into the living room, hop up on the couch and open the book up to start reading - my mom would be there to help me of course but I wanted to do this all on my own. Lol, I thought I was little miss independent. I read that book everyday until I could perfect every work, every sentence without hesitation - and one day I did. I remember being so excited and I just read the story to everyone in my family to show how I could read. Lol. So I think that was my favorite childhood story because it was my first book I learned to read!

But I think other children's books I liked were the Junie B. Jones series - oh god I would read those everyday I could get through those in an hour or two at least. I would not put down those books and when someone took the book from me or any students or my friends tried to interrupt me reading, I was not a happy camper, you didn't want to talk to me then.

Till this day, I still love to read however I prefer writing much more than reading. But I still do read a ton and I got a whole book shelf plus another space for my books to prove it! I love authors like Lisi Harrison, Cecily Von Ziegesar, Sarah Dessen, Jay Asher, and I love, love, love Lurlene McDaniel. I love stories with very sad, intense situations going on in the story and I can always find myself crying to one of Lurlene's books because it's that sad.

As for Cecily Von Ziegesar - well she's my guilty pleasure she provides a sort of sarcastic, fun, wild story for me everytime.

Whoo, this is getting long, I'm sorry for that I know you probably don't care much, but this question brought back so many memories and I thought it was kind of cute.
