    [Books] Favorite Book(s) of your childhood?

    I don't know about your elementary school, but mine had a library. And along with that we were told to read books from it and make book reports on them. After a while we all hated the book reports, we did find a few books we did like.

    What was your Favorite Books of your childhood?

    Mine was a book called "Hatchet" which, looking back was a rather graphic book for a kid like me to read. I also like referencing "Fahrenheit 451" because its amazing how that book from the 1960's had so many details about the modern day correct.

    I loved all the Redwall novels, even if they were near the same after awhile, but I loved them all the same.

    Redwall was excellent, as was the Narnia series.

    Just William was insanely funny as a child(and even had my dad in hysterics reading them to me)

    From what I remember, it would have to be Grandpa's Ghost Stories by James Flora, Chain Letter by Christopher Pike. There are too many books to name.

    When we were really young, my mom used to read us the Narnia books, which was wonderful.

    By elementary school, my favorite book was Fantastic Mr. Fox, and I enjoyed the Animorphs.

    Middle School, I liked Thunderwith, The Abhorsen series, Redwall, and many books by David Clement Davies.

    I don't read much anymore.

    Hatchet is also one of my favorites!

    I also like the other books with the kid from Hatchet in it.
    Kurogasa:"Bitch tried to steal my herb... So I typhooned his ass off a cliff"
    Gala:"Why can't he burn in heaven? There can be Holy Fire in Heaven"
    Garrosh Hellscream:"Shut your clever mouth, bitch."
    Terenas Menethil II:"At long last. No king rules forever, my son."
    Kenny:"I'm just waiting for a fire axe to hack through my door one day and see aulio on the other side goin "heeeeeeeeres johnny"
    StarFade:Are you actually serious? To quote every rapper:"How fucked-up is you?"
