I personally love Children's books. I enjoy reading them and looking at the pictures. I dunno, I just find them interesting. Especially children's books by Neil Gaiman. Such as 'Wolves in the Walls' (Fantasmic book, you HAVE to read it. I wuv the pig puppet.), or 'Coraline' (spooky but awesome).
Your thoughts?

Some children's books are good. I enjoy reading them, even though they are easy.

I'm not fond of children's books due to the fact that I shelve hundreds of them every day. x_x They are my enemy.

Ah, I love them!
Well, not all of them. But I love a great deal of them.
The children's books my mother gave me (a small library of literally hundreds) were well chosen. Books that had really neat and sometimes a-typical story lines, and the most captivating illustrations. She gave me the kind of stories that would make use of the flexibility of a young mind. Re-reading some of them now, I'm surprised to find that there were sometimes deeper meanings hidden within the simple stories.
I love all my little kid books. I hate it when my mother tries to sell them. I really want to keep them forever. Even though I have no plans to have children of my own, I want them for ME. 3nodding

Children's books are usually pretty good, especially for moments of nostalgia. I was helping my mom at the library once and I ran across the book "If You Give a Mouse a Cookie" and it brought back memories so I had to read it. ^_^
I have run out of room long ago for all my books, but I just can't really part from things like The Boxcar Children series. sweatdrop

Well of course, some childrens books I have discarded.
When I was five I only wanted to read 'Jane and the Dragon' and 'Leo the Lop' until I started reading novels and novelettes.
I still have those two childrens books.
But alot of them I don't care for.
"If you give a mouse a cookie", however, I have to recite it everytime I walk by one in the store. 'If you give a mouse a cookie, he's going to want some milk. If you give a mouse some milk he's going to want... ect...'
^____^ Oh so fun.

In my opinion you can never outgrow childrens books! There is always a place for them in my heart.

I dislike childrens books beacause, they don't really give a lesson. I mean, most childrens book, or at least most fearie tales, are based on storys created to give a lesson, but childrens books these days have no lessons, they serve no purpose but to give a fake sence of security. It makes no sence to me.

mpluver I dislike childrens books beacause, they don't really give a lesson. I mean, most childrens book, or at least most fearie tales, are based on storys created to give a lesson, but childrens books these days have no lessons, they serve no purpose but to give a fake sence of security. It makes no sence to me. I dont know if I can agree with that. There are a lot of books that will serve a purpose and teach a lesson. For example the book Things Not Seen by Andrew Clements. Its about a boy who dissapears because of a freak accident with an electric blanket. The book's lesson (I think) is that children need to solve their problems and persever. I could list a ton of other books that do serve a purpose and teach a lesson.

I love children's books to death. Even if they are rather easy to read and sometimes don't have an "important" meaning to people who are older. I will never grow old of Green Eggs and Ham, that is my favorite child's book.
