And I grew up to love dachshunds!

The Giving Tree by Shel Siverstein

You so took mine!!! (I seriously was about to type that!)

Okay, how about Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown......

Looking back through my childhood memories...

I would have to say..

The Little Engine That Could...

The Velveteen Rabbit - Margery Williamson

Since I'm a first grade teacher, I will be visiting this often!

I loved:

Pat the Bunny - there were all these things you could do, rub the soft bunny, look at yourself in a "mirror", rub daddy's scratchy "beard", smell the "flowers". It was great tactile learning!

I could fill up pages of children's books, but will follow Honey's directions!;)

LOL! I almost put Pat the Bunny myself!!


Is That You, God? It's Me, Margaret - Judy Blume

"The Sailor Dog" by Margaret Wise Brown

(the first book I read entirely on my own)

Oh... Another thing I thought of... when I was in the end of elementary school and going into middle school I had a thing for reading stories about children dying of diseases or surviving from them... So I suggest

The One Last Wish series by Lurlene McDaniel

My last one for tonight...

"Just So Stories" by Rudyard Kipling

The Devil's Arithmetic - Jane Yolen

Oh, I loved Pat the Bunny (for my middle daughter, though!), and the Betsy-Tacy series, and Beverly Cleary. (I'm reading "Henry and Ribsy" and "Beezus and Ramona" to my youngest daughter right now, and reliving how much I loved those books.)

"Edith and Mr. Bear" by Dare Wright

Miss Rumphius by Barbara Cooney
