Everything I ever needed to know about capitalism

I learned in one book that I read when I was 3.............. (started reading @ 2 1/2).....................The Little Red Hen - no wonder I am so partial to my redheads!

What was your favorite book/story as a child & why?

Thought it may make for a fun thread.....

The Velveteen Rabbit. I never realized the moral of the story until I grew up, but what a fantasy that story is!

Goodnight Moon, hands down. I love all the stories that have a good, melodic tempo when you read them out loud to your kids. I had my mom read that book to me (twice) each night when I was little. I also enjoy the books by Paul Goble, like The Girl Who Loved Wild Horses.

eta because I was only paying partial attention while typing

A is for Annabelle, by Tasha Tudor; i loved all the beautiful pictures and description of the doll and her belongings.

I learned how to read at four. I can't remember my favorite book when I was little like that, but at six I was enjoying Agatha Christie murder mysteries

Seriously!

My favorite children's book is The Secret Garden. It planted the seed (pun intended) of my lifelong love of all things garden and nature.

Reinbeau, when I was that age I had every single Nancy Drew and Hardy Boys book there was!

The "B" Book Dr. Seuss. I must have read that book a thousand times to my son too.

 

[The Chicken Lady]

Um, I read "Roots" in fourth grade...

but way before that, I liked a book called "I Am a Bunny." Hee hee.
