I'm so old I Remember when:

[Canadian Wind]

We went camping during the summers when I was a kid (if you call a 32' trailer *camping*) and had bumper stickers from all the places we visited!

 

[The Moonshiner]

(if you call a 32' trailer *camping*)

Nope. Not camping when a trailer was our house.

Where I am, Coke and other carbonated soft drinks are "pop." Their containers are pop cans and pop bottles.

I don't know why I've called it soda for most of my life. I called it pop as a youngin and then at some point started saying soda. Faygo Red Pop is the only thing I call pop

@notabitail mentioned Tomie DePaola in another thread, which reminded me of his Strega Nona books. So now I'm curious about books everybody remembers reading (or being read to) during early childhood!

For me, Strega Nona, Amelia Bedelia, Junie B. Jones, and Goodnight Moon are the first that come to mind.

None

None

None at all?!

I didn't read any that I can remember. I remember reading like 2 or 3 books in high school for assignments.
I'm sure my mom read books to me when I was little but I don't remember it or what they was. Probably some Dr Seuss were involved if any.
I'm not or have ever been a book fan.

Fair enough!

Billy Goat Gruff is all I remember. Perhaps something about Bur Rabbit is in the dark recesses of my mind.

We call them “soft drinks”.
Soda in my country is only carbonated water without additives.
