Procrastinating and came across this fact about The Iron Giant, a film I loved as a kid. Anyone else know this? I want to read The Iron Man now!
@TrishB

BethM Hmmm. Maybe I'll have to read the book to get the correlation. (edited) 6y

IamIamIam Well, Ted Hughes had quite a lot to answer for!!! I loved this movie, however, but I've never read the book! Thanks for the heads up!! 6y

TrishB I read the book quite a while ago! 6y

laurieluna @TrishB thought you might have 😆 never read any Ted Hughes. 6y

Hosting Christmas at my house for the first time. I‘ve been baking all morning! In between I finished The Iron Man. The Iron Giant is one of my favorite animated films. The book is so different! Really enjoyed it though, and a nice, fast read.

Andrea4 Hope it goes as smoothly as Christmas can!!!😂 merry christmas! 7y

Skyrimir Merry Christmas to you as well! 7y

6yo loved having this book read to him. There's a real poetic feel, a melody almost, in the words when read aloud. And just scary enough to keep him wide eyed the whole way through.

EloisaJames This is such a lyrical, gracefully sad book. My mother read it aloud to us over and over--the message is as wonderful as the words. 8y

Centique @EloisaJames I so agree. Just beautiful 😊 8y

RadicalReader @Centique looked at the title and thanks to many marvel books I thought it had to do with the fantastic and handsome Tony Stark 8y

One of my childhood favourites 😊 love the book, love the movie. Used to read it with my Brothers and we still watch it every Christmas! Anyone else have nice memories about a childhood fave? 🎃😉🌰🍂🍁

Laura317 I had never heard of it. I must check this out. I have fond memories of the Little House on the Prairie books. I grew up reading them and watching the tv show.💕💕💕 8y

Johanna414 Lol my siblings and I watch Predator every Christmas... Very festive, right? 8y

Centique I loved this book and have it on my list to read to my 6yo soon. I remember loving Stig of the Dump at about the same age. (basically about a boy who finds a caveman living in a rubbish dump, in a house made out of discarded junk) 8y

TheLondonBookworm @Laura317 No way! Oh you must read it :) it's really short but the sweetest story. Then watch the animated adaptation (warning it will probably make you cry) 8y

TheLondonBookworm @Johanna414 haha sounds about right to me! It's a classic, Christmas is for classics 😬😬 8y

TheLondonBookworm @Centique Ah yes! Great book I remember studying it in school. Another one to add to reading to your son pile! :) 8y
