Favorite children's book's

[Ocean]

What were your favorite picture books as a kid?
Mine was some awesome book about a kid with one eye, can't remember the name, I read it every day though.
And of course Where the wild things are.

Also be prepared to get nostalgia'd.

Aww I remember that one.

[camobch0]

I read Dr. Suess so much I know have every line of every book he ever wrote memorized in my head as well as the illustrations for each version of every story. And there was some other one about a guy trying to get ingredients for a pancake that I remember slightly. Oww, for some reason this is making my head hurt. Yeah, but I know cannot remember most of the stuff that happened up until I was seven due too me reading those books so much.

Where The Sidewalk Ends, and Watership Down.

Small Pig. Loved that book when I was really little.

AWWW, someone got to I Love You Forever before I could. :D

For whatever odd reason, I liked the Dr. Seuss book "Marvin K. Mooney, Will You Please Go Now!" Turns out that "Marvin" was supposed to be Nixon. The book and his presidency ended the same way.

As for modern-day children's books, there's a crazy one I like called "Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus" by Mo Williems. This is the guy who did the cartoon Sheep in the Big City, if you remember it. He does a bunch of books with the pigeon. There's one where the pigeon and another bird argue over a hot dog they find on the ground.

That story about those 2 frogs.

Indeed, Dr. Seuss was a genius cleverly disguised as a storyteller for children. You can see that each sentence in his stories was constructed in formulaic manner so as to optimize the child's reading skills without sacrificing enjoyment.

Just remembered something else I liked: the Amelia Bedelia books and how she took everything literally. The lady could tell her to trim the Christmas tree and she'd be after it with a pair of hedge clippers.

Mine was about some stupid kid who couldn't read and ignored signs and sat in poison ivy.

[Kaydea]

I really liked anything by Shel Silverstein.

[COKEHEAD75]

I remember my favorite book when I was a child was Mr.Sneeze.
It was my favorite out of the collection of books it came with.

[Wegra]

CHICKEN SOUP WITH MOTHERFUCIKIN RICE! *sniff* the memories!

[Lagamuffin]

Anything to do with the Mr Men or Dr Suess...

[sumidiotdude]

Martha Speaks. It was about a dog that learned to talk. It was utterly hilarious.

[Sensationalism]

I also like Enid Blyton's Goodnight Stories and Caps For Sale and Marvin K Mooney and Old Hat, New Hat.
