"Oh The Places You'll Go" is my most remembered childhood book. Or the Hans Christian Anderson book of "The Little Mermaid" not the messed up "cutsified" Disney version book. It shocked me that Disney had the audacity to make they're own picture book version of their movie.

Drowtung I was in love with Dungeons and Dragons and other Choose Your Own Adventure series. Dungeons and Dragons has a book series? ...Well... I guess I knew that, but it makes me a little sad. I mean, it's a great game, why do they have to try and increase their profit margin still further from the millions and billions they already make by writing books about the characters that are always used as examples in the Rulebooks?

I used to rant about how much better the books are than the movies, and if you must compare them, they often are. However, I would never be satisfied if I continue to do that.
My reading training wheels have pretty much been the junior novelizations to Disney movies. I remember being so excited reading Beauty and the Beast.

my dad read me Dinotopia, and the Hobbit, doing all the voices. i'm sure he read me the Berenstein Bears the same way, when i was too young to remember it. i'm pretty sure he must have done so, because i loved to read them myself. my mother read me a book called The Horrible Little Sister or something, which was really good. i remember reading along with her by the time we got to the last story. hm^^

Except I stuck dinosaur stickers all over the pages and he had to skip a couple paragrpahs. I also remember that I had this book filled with anime poems and pretty pictures that I used to love as a kid. sweatdrop

The book that stands out most in my mind is Into the Land of Unicorns. The author's name escapes my name at the moment...how annoying.

Charlie and The chocolate Factory. Roahd Dahl really uses his imagination, and in this Book, I feel he encourages others as well..

YomikoReadmanPaper The book that stands out most in my mind is Into the Land of Unicorns. The author's name escapes my name at the moment...how annoying. Bruce Coville. I liked that book too, and it's sequel. I never finished the series, though. By the time the third book had come out, I had grown outof it. When Harry Potter came out, I was in Kindergarten, and I read most of it, and had some read to me. I also loved the Boxcar children books. My ex-next-door neighbors had given us a HUGE bag filled with every book in the series and I would hole myself up in my room reading them. I used to think those books were so big and mature. Well, for a 5 year-old, I guess that a 100 page book its pretty big....

Before they sold their soul and it was eaten by dogs. crying Yes, Disney used to be quite good. One thing that I always remember is the hookah smoking catepillar from Alice in Wonderland. You'd never see something like that in a new disney movie.

Forgotten Realm's Erevis Cale trilogy is actually one of the best books I've ever read but back to the topic, Redwall was probably my fav childhood series

I loved the Redwall books. I thought they were really good, at the time..Now, re-reading them, I'm a little disappointed.
