And one of my favorite topics :) Ah, ...Great list!! And one of my favorite topics :) Ah, so many beloved books from childhood - you've hit on many of my favorites, too, like The Cat in the Hat, The Borrowers (I was obsessed and read the whole series!), The Mouse and the Motorcycle and its sequel (which we also read to our boys, and they loved it too). My 2nd grade teacher read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe aloud to us, and I was hooked! I raced to the school library and read every book in the series. My husband and I read the whole series aloud to our sons, too. Charlotte's Web - of course - I still cry every time.<br /><br />I didn't know that Amelia Bedilia and Little Bear were around when I was a kid - we discovered those with our sons and especially loved the Little Bear books.<br /><br />I learned to read with Go, Dog, Go! so that was a fave and also Are You My Mother? Ditto for my kids.<br /><br />And my response to A Wrinkle in Time was much like yours! I LOVED that book and read the entire series. Even better, I played Meg in our school play of it! I was so excited :)<br /><br />OK, my husband is complaining - are you sure that was just 1 more comment you were writing?? Time for dinner! Thanks for the stroll down memory lane!<br /><br />SueSue Jacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14532098225905355332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4083328248557950617.post-33805913789870963102019-07-05T09:57:42.280-07:002019-07-05T09:57:42.280-07:00Yeah I agree Charlotte's Web and Where the Red...Yeah I agree Charlotte's Web and Where the Red Fern Grows were two of my favorites.

I am not sure why we rarely went to the library. I have two younger siblings.

I don't know I read "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe."
