Caryl Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 You can never have too many books. My children were both encouraged to read and still do so as adults. Reading was a big part of our family life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amtiskaw Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 Fungus the Bogeyman was a fav when I was a little older. The one I remember most is The Tomten and the Fox - it used to make me feel peaceful and filled me with a sort of haunted sense of wonder, if that makes sense.

Sophia Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 the Raymond Briggs books - Father Christmas, The Snowman etc. Father Christmas goes on holiday was good, he went to Las Vegas, ate too much and felt sick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinytawnykitten Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 THere were some great golden books and you can still buy heaps of them on Trade Me. My favs as a child were Scuffy the Tug Boat Little Toot The Tiny, Tawny Kitten (hence my user name!) The Winnie-the-Pooh books A Lion In The Meadow there are so many... I have two small children and their favourites now are the above, plus the Hairy McCleary books, Maisy books for the wee one, and the all time fav ever, Goodnight Moon, which you simply must have. If you're buying new buy from The Book Depository, it'll always be waaaay cheaper and they ship free to NZ. Mind you, they've just been bought by Amazon so that gig might be up soon.
