    Pink Grin Your favorite books when you were a baby/toddler

    So i was book shopping today with m sister, and we were looking in the little kid section for the heck of it, and I came across of of my favorite books I had growing up:

    I was so happy to see it, I bought it. I also love "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" and any other book by that author.

    When I was a kid, my Aunt bought me a giant book from the Museum of Natural History with these amazing pictures and descriptions of all of the dinosaurs, especially the marine ones. It was beautiful.

    That book is so smurfing depressing.



    Best book ever.

    Also,



    I also had a bedtime story with a compilation of tales, and I really liked the story of Persephone.

    Most depressing children's book?

    What is the name of that one about the boy who has a stuffed animal who got thrown into the garbage because the boy was sick and the Mom thought it would reinfect him. Book made my MOM cried every time she read it to me. XD

    Hahah, I loved that book. And that bear reminds me that I really liked Paddington the bear as a child, because it taught me the word "stowaday" when I was 7 which I thought was the coolest.

    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.
