johnnydrama Posted November 27, 2006 Share Posted November 27, 2006 Roald Dahl's Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (I think the Tim Burton film with Johnny Depp as Willy Wonka really did justice to the original book, even if the backstory about Willy Wonka having dad issues is kinda forced). Enid Blyton's Whyteleafe series ...."Naughty Amelia Jane" - gosh, what a title for my impressionable mind back then!!!

Baby Sitters Club, Sweet Valley, Goosebumps, Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys....Spawn and Marvel Comics... Grimm Brothers Fairy Tales (yes I read their version when I was in elementary...) and then there's Jane Austen's books (waaa!)...

Larry Posted December 13, 2006 Share Posted December 13, 2006 mom used to buy me these "pocket classics", forgot the publisher, but I loved reading them all, Oliver Twist, Ivanhoe, Swiss Family Robinson, Robin Hood... I also read usual kid fare, Tin Tin comics, Hardy Boys (Frank and Joe were heroes to me, too bad Chet was a closet fag and jockrider to the two brothers), marvel comics, dragonlance, etc.  By the time I was 13-14 I had graduated to espionage paperbacks, robert ludlum, john le carre. didn't really understand most of what was there, but I enjoyed all the adventure in those books.

Macy Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 one book that i will never forget is called  Hope For the Flowers... kids, especially Filipino kids should read it... Quote Link to comment
s3cr3tiv3 Posted January 5, 2007 Share Posted January 5, 2007 Yeah, I read Hope for the Flowers too... Very inspiring story. Anyway, I used to really love reading the Hardy Boys and Nancy Drew books. I used to wonder why Franklin Dixon and Carolyn Keene never seemed to die, but just kept on writing and writing books, books, and more books. Of course, that was before I found out that FD and CK were pen names for a whole lot of ghostwriters writing as FD and CK. Quote Link to comment

blow_gobi Posted February 8, 2007 Share Posted February 8, 2007 Three years ago, I got to read the Chronicles of Narnia including the Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe, which my daughter borrowed from her school library and brought home. As I was reading the books, my tears fell. The stories were so magical and fascinating for a 9-year old, and would have greatly influenced my life if I were a 9-year old. Unfortunately, I wasn't, so I couldn't do anything but be sad. Quote Link to comment
