I think almost as awesome as seeing children reading is hearing adults talk about the best books they read when young!Birdiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09240886179336298463noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5087298869735390985.post-91324812576177663142013-07-14T01:39:30.807-04:002013-07-14T01:39:30.807-04:00Bethany, I have a friend who has never liked Dr. S...Bethany, I have a friend who has never liked Dr. Seuss either. So you're not alone! :) I've just always liked his stories. Rhyming nonsense made me laugh and I loved to read them out loud.<br /><br />Oh yes! The Babysitter's Club-I loved those! I think I may have had about the entire series at one point. They were well-loved at my house, I always wanted to start my own club. It sounded like so much fun! :DKarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09590701834142754842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5087298869735390985.post-85598551861256882802013-07-14T01:36:11.265-04:002013-07-14T01:36:11.265-04:00Thank you, Hamlette! :)

And Clifford, how could I forget him? Loved him and Emily Elizabeth.Karahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09590701834142754842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5087298869735390985.post-16733015632853489012013-07-14T01:34:16.256-04:002013-07-14T01:34:16.256-04:00Grace, I read the Berenstain Bears constantly when...Grace, I read the Berenstain Bears constantly when I was little! I always liked the little poem at the beginning of each book. :)<br /><br />I remember making up stories for picture books as well! I'm sure they didn't make any sense to anyone else but me, but I loved to imagine all kinds of things. <i>Green Eggs and Ham</i> is still a fun story to read out loud! :DKarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09590701834142754842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5087298869735390985.post-38491445320201369812013-07-14T01:29:14.625-04:002013-07-14T01:29:14.625-04:00Yes!

My cousin had so many of the Berenstain Bears so I have read a bunch of those and enjoy them too. She shared them with Caleb when he started reading. I have never enjoyed Dr. Seuss!bphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09884081028227999883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5087298869735390985.post-86744637324182557922013-07-11T15:08:29.120-04:002013-07-11T15:08:29.120-04:00Anne of Green Gables, the Little House books, the ...Anne of Green Gables, the Little House books, the American Girl books -- yes! And the Ramona and Henry books, definitely. I also loved the Indian in the Cupboard books by Lynne Reid Banks. <br /><br />For picture books, I loved Dr. Seuss, the Berenstain Bears, the Clifford books by Norman Bridwell, and so many others. <br /><br />Good post!Hamlette (Rachel)https://www.blogger.com/profile/11961916847426233995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5087298869735390985.post-64917199706557610702013-07-11T10:17:32.147-04:002013-07-11T10:17:32.147-04:00The "Berenstain Bears" were ones I liked...The "Berenstain Bears" were ones I liked too!<br /><br />I enjoyed it when my mother read to my siblings and me when I was younger. There was this one book we used to ask her to read more than once!<br /> Before I could read I used to just make up stories out of the pictures fom picture books, but then I learned to read and the first book I read through was a Dr. Seuss story, "Green Eggs and Ham." How far I've come, lol.
