I think I read Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs when I was a kid. I know it was one of my sister's favorites. I liked Dr. Seuss but I've only read a few of his books. I am familiar with Oh, the Places You'll Go but I didn't read it till I was an adult.<br /><br />What a great list!Christina Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756342293865115352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-594502524570705142.post-5804236733311987092011-06-10T22:14:34.320-05:002011-06-10T22:14:34.320-05:00The Scaredy Squirrel books are some of my favourit...The Scaredy Squirrel books are some of my favourites (especially the first one). So, so funny. Plus Mo Willem's Pigeon books.

I adored Goodnight, Moon (d...Aw, what a great post! I adored Goodnight, Moon (despite its repetition, LOL - or perhaps because of it!) and I enjoyed Corduroy as well. Also I loved The Missing Piece, I know I re-read that one lots. Never had to analyze it for which I am very grateful! <br /><br />Also I know I liked the Alexander book (LOL at the jaundice comment! I am impressed they were familiar with that term) and The Very Hungry Caterpillar and Where the Wild Things Are were big favourites in my family too. <br /><br />Another I simply loved was The Runaway Bunny by Margaret Wise Brown. And echoing Jillian's comment, Are You My Mother? was one of my Seuss favourites too!danyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07947267082874389487noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-594502524570705142.post-44704236973155554782011-06-10T06:11:47.406-05:002011-06-10T06:11:47.406-05:00Aww this post is bringing me back memories!

I absolutely loved reading even then, and even just looking at picture/chapter books that I adored before makes me all giddy and happy! <br /><br />'Goodnight, Moon' was definitely my bedtime book - as cliche as that pick is! 'Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs' is so adorable! Have you seen the movie? It's pretty fun too. Oh and LOVED anything from Dr. Seuss, but my favorite from him for some reason was, "Are you my mother?" Haha.Jillianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07629286727932554109noreply@blogger.com
