Re: Well loved childhood books

I had a look through the catergories but was dissapointed to find no place for those wonderful story books.

My personal favourites have to be by the author Enid Blyton, especially.....

The faraway tree collection
The wishing chair
The children of cherry tree farm

I have fond memories of these books and have passed them on the my grandaughter now, i hope she appreciates them as much as i did.

I've just been sent back to my childhood! The Faraway Tree - the most amazing story book ever for children - I know my mum has that stored away in her loft - must go rumaging - may have to read it again

Re: What books did you read?

The first grown up book i read was my dads copy of Jaws, its so much better than the movie, i was 11 at the time and it scared the jeepers out of me, i then went on to read Croc, Gator, Slither, Squirm, The Rats,Lets Go Play At The Addams, i must have read that book about five times over the years, lost my copy on holoday years ago and cant buy a new one anywhere. I then started on my mums Catherine Crookson novels but stopped reading them when i found a copy of a Jackie Collins novel, they made all the other books so tame in comparison, i still read any horrors i can find, the more gory the better. salemsmine

Re: What books did you read?

Just remember some more. Read it yourself books with stories like the shoe maker and the elfs. Also choose your own adventure books. Had the one were the boy travelled through time when he entered a cave. Be honest, who cheated with them and always when back when the story was over and go to the other page??? LOL

Oops sorry, didn`t see the book thread. My bad. Thanks for moving.
