And my favorite -- Those wonderful books by Richard Scarry - he was a magnificent drawer, too, and taught us little kids what's right and what's wrong (like: Baby Fox ran down the stairs too fast and he broke his leg. Mrs. and Mr. Fox were very sad. Children, you do not want your parents to be sad, do you? Baby Fox learned his lesson and went down the stairs slowly.)
I still own his books! And I'm not ashamed of it! Well, maybe a little...but still :).

Al Silverstein poems were pretty interesting.

All covered in vines
Lived 12 little girls in

So, I vowed that any of my best friends and my future husband would HAVE to know the Story of Ping. My friends all do now!)
