    Ah! I know this one for some reason! It's The Velveteen Rabbit.

    Which is weird, because I don't remember reading that one when I was little.

    The first time I ever heard of the phrase 'Velveteen Rabbit' it was furry hentai.

    Cue my confusion when Jess mentioned how she liked it as a little girl.

    My favorite book as a kid was this space encyclopedia kind of thing. It wasn't for toddlers or anything, it was for like 10 year olds or something, but I did not care. I loved it and I read it constantly and I learned all the big words.

    Winnie the Witch 4eva. Also Each Peach Pear Plum. Also Hairy Maclary + co. Also the Little Grey Rabbit series. I had a poem collection called A Child's Garden of Verses which I quite liked. And the Jolly Christmas Postman. And the Cat in the Hat! And the full Beatrix Potter collection, and Alice in Wonderland(&sequel), and Hans Andersen's fairy tales collection. Those are the ones that stand out in my mind from when I was a brat.

    OMG and can't forget It Was A Dark and Stormy night. I gave that book away and I regretted it immediately Love the Ahlbergs.

    "Where the Wild Things Are" was a good book when I was a kid. Also, lots of fairy tales (Brothers Grimm and H.C. Andersen) - liked the ones with something twisted in them.

    Other than that I loved to look in books about ghosts and ancient Egyptian culture (i.e. mummies and stuff).

    Yeah, had the animated version of that on tape... I remember never wanting to watch it because it was pretty sad.

    Absolutely anything Dr. Seuss is pretty much fantastic. Where The Wild Things Are, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Berenstein Bears, the If You Give A... books, um... can't really remember many others. Those were all pretty fun books though as I recall.

    I always really liked The True Story of the Three Little Pigs but I think that's for slightly older kids. It's a really fun and quirky book though.

    A book about some kids living in a forest full of blueberries, and a book about a family living in a hat and then the hat burned down, which was very sad. I'm sure it ended well though.
