THE CAT IN THE HAT! PHWEEEEE! No, The Hungry Caterpillar! w0000t! Omg, do you mean Eric Carle's books? The Very Hungry Caterpillar, The Very Lonely Firefly, The Very Busy Spider... wow, those were cool. EDIT: I still gotta go with The Rainbow Fish, though. It will always be my favorite children's book. |

"Winnie the Pooh and Some Bees".
I had a beautiful illustrated book of it as a little girl, and I used to beg Mum to read it to me in the evenings.

I think my family didn't own The Rainbow Fish, too, so reading it when I got a copy was always a special treat... or something... |

Hm.... I think it was actually a book on tape. XD I don't know the name, though. It was about a little girl who went off to find where the stars were, so she climbed out her window one night and wound up talking to a brook, and a pond, and dancing with little folk, and riding a magic horse and a giant fish, and climbing the rainbow stairs all the way up to where the stars were! She reached out to grab one, but fell off and tumbled down to the ocean... but then she woke up in her bed, and it was morning. But, in her hand, was her very own star! That's my favourite bed time story. It even has a song in it!
*sings*
"Ask Four Feet to carry you
to No Feet At All,
then tell No Feet At All to carry you
to the stairs without steps.
If you can climb way up on them,
then you will be amung the stars in the sky at last.
And if you're not there,
you'll be somewhere else..."
*fuzzy feeling inside*

More Spaghetti I Say by...someone. It was a great book....all about a monkey named Minnie in a purple dress and galoshes and how obsessed she is with spaghetti. Oh. Such a classic.  I still remember this immortal line: "Play with me Minnie! Play with me please! We can jump on our hands, we can swing from the trees! Not now, don't you see? I can't play with you, Freddie! Not now, don't you see? I'm eating SPAGHETTI!" |

The first favourite book I evr had was whe I was five, and my mum used to read me picture books. It was called, I think, Pawprints, and it had wonderful illustrations.

Let me see... I had to have been one or two years old, and my favourite book was "Baby Donald Goes to the Playground." I forget who wrote it. According to my mom, I absolutely adored that book. Heh, more like a leaflette. It had probably had five pages with one sentence on each page.
Next was "Button Soup" (author also unknown). It was pretty much a Disney version of "Rock Soup." I remember that I liked it because the soup was all colorful and swirly. *mesmorized by swirlies*
After that was "Eddie's Spagetti," by some other guy. I loved spagetti with a passion when I was six, so I loved that book too. I read it during my kindergarten graduation "ceremony" to my audience which consisted of relatives. *ish homeschooled*
I still like Dr. Seuss books. They're so cute!

For me it was either Officer Buckley and Gloria... i think, or maybe Goldylocks and the Three Blairs... ( I LOVED the part where baby Blair went' BUSTED') it might have been The Magic Pot... or The Jolly Pocket Postman... or Paddington Bear, or The Velveteen Rabbit... or The Secret Garden.... I have no idea... XD I would just sit on a pillow and grab every book I could from the shelf and read it

Hmm... I had a few, some of which I don't remember the names of... but I can remember Go Dogs Go and Find Spot. I'm smiling benignly as I type this and I don't know why.

Hmm ... let's see. There'd be the Narnian series, when my parents read them to me. And 'Old Blue'. It was about these robins ...

Maybe...*thinks* Hop on Pop, the Cat in the Hat...lots of Dr. Seuss. And almost anything written by Eric Carle. I loved those books. ^^ (And I still do.)

I loved Eric Carle books. In 1st grade, I think..., we watched a video showing him making his books and it looked so cool.
I've always liked Dr. Seuss books. Especially the second Cat in the Hat. I liked it when everything turned pink. ^^
