I totally loved the Berenstein Bears and Amelia Bedelia too! Great list :)
ReplyDeleteI like the Corduroy books, though I didn't discover them until I was grown up.
ReplyDeleteAmelia Bedelia-- man, in retrospect, how did she manage to keep that job? If it wasn't for her excellent cooking, she so would have been canned. I LOVED those books. :0)
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the winners! Where the Wile Things are for sure, plus In the Night Kitchen by Maurice Sendak, too. Happy thoughts. :)
ReplyDeleteThe only one I never read as a kid (as far as I remember) is Corduroy. The rest I loved.
ReplyDeleteI never read any Amelia Bedelia until we had kids. Great stuff--really funny, even when you can see the misunderstanding coming a mile away.
ReplyDeleteFun choices. I remember Amelia Bedelia too. Those were fun books.
ReplyDeleteWow thanks!!
ReplyDeleteI was SO excited to meet the so of the Berenstein Bears creators - I learned to read on those books. I even did a guest post for Baffled Books about them lol.
I never read Miss Nelson is Missing but I loved the other ones too. :)
ReplyDeleteMy ultimate favorite book was an anthology I had of the Grimm Brothers. It was a collection of all their fairy tales. I also loved Aesop's Fables. Those stories stuck in my head and I still remember them fondly.
ReplyDeleteAmelia Bedelia was awesome :D
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the winners.
ReplyDeleteI loved the Frog and Toad books best, as well as any type of fairy tale.
