This isn' going to be a long post, just wanted to share that I recently took a poll and asked what people loved to read when they were children.
They told me about their favorite books, series, and comics.
Although I was not surprised by the likes of Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak, or Charlotte's Web by E.B. White, and A Wrinkle in Time by Madeleine L'Engle, I did get some answers that threw me for a loop.
For instance, many people said they loved Edgar Allen Poe, even as a child. Now I was raised watching Frankenstein and Dracula so that was not a big deal for ME, but I had no idea that it was so commonplace across the board.
A few other faves were Winnie the Pooh, The Giving Tree, anything by Roald Dahl, and the Bunnicula series.
Here are some other's that were mentioned:
~ Nate the Great
~ Babar
~ The Diary of Anne Frank
~ Harold and the Purple Crayon
~ Pat the Bunny
~ Narnia
~ Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys
~ Stuart Little
There were plenty more, but rather than list them all, I'd rather hear what YOU loved as a child, and why.
Looking forward to hearing!! xo
