With my sister giving birth in April (yeah ... in about 2 or so months. I'm feeling ancient here!) I've decided to do what I'm calling a "Book Project". This project involves gathering up favorite books of family members (aunts, uncle, mother) to give to my niece.
I've gotten the following books so far:
"The Poky Little Puppy" - my favorite
"The Monster At The End of the Book" - my brother's favorite
"I Am A Bunny" - Kellie's favorite
"Go, Dogs! Go!" - my sister's favorite
Along with "Pat The Bunny", "Good Night Moon" and "Harry The Dirty Dog" (another one of my favorites).
What I'll be doing is writing a note in the book like, "This was so-and-so's favorite book when they were a kid, and we want to share it with you". I will be doing this when my brother and sister-in-law have their own kids as well. :-)
Anyways ... I'd like to know. What was your favorite book as a kid?

Date: 2009-01-31 07:51 pm (UTC)The Saggy Baggy Elephant was my favorite.
My kids loved Parts, but I don't remember the author. It's about a little boy who thinks his body is falling apart when he finds thinks like lint in his bellybutton, earwax, etc. It's really cute.
Oh, and, Where the Wild Things Are is an excellent book, too.
A must for your sister is I love You Forever.
