Favorite Children's Book
 

This may have been used before but I am doing a grant proposal for a children's library and it got me thinking about my favorite children's book--

Mine was The Story of Ping

What was yours?

Dr. Seuss's Sleep Book

There's a Wocket in my Pocket & Green Eggs and Ham
You can't go wrong w/Dr. Seuss.

I also loved The Little Princess & The Secret Garden.

I, too was a child of the Berenstein Bears, Paddington, Ramona Quimby, and Judy Blume books, but these were some of my favorites and most cherished:

Good Night Moon by Margaret Wise Brown

Love You Foreverr by Robert N. Munsch and Sheila McGraw
I'll love you forever, I'll like you for always, as long as I'm living, my baby you'll be...

If You Give a Mouse a Cookie by Laura Joffe Numeroff

The Giving Tree and Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein

A Tree Grows in Brooklyn by Betty Smith

that's what i was going to say!

Our kids and our grand daughter all love(d) Goodnight Moon and The Rainbow Goblins...

I adored all of Laura Ingalls Wilder's "Little House" books.

I also love "Goodnight Moon". Reminds me of when my girls were babies and I'd read it to them every night :)

Ananzi the Spider

Cat in the Hat

To Think That All Happened on Mullberry Street

Cars and Trucks and Things That Go--it's finding Goldbug in EVERY picture that makes this story book fun...

All the Brother's Grimm fairytales... Just that Princess life my folks sold me off into...

The Giving Tree - still brings a tear to my eye

Are You There God? It's Me Margaret - too bad it's still banned in many schools.

A current book I read w/my 6th graders is The Giver. That's an amazing book w/out the traditional "storybook" ending.

When I was really little, my favorites were:
