#ChildhoodClassics

Vi p Krageen | Astrid Lindgren

I‘m listening to this as an audio book whilst in the car with my daughter. I‘ve read it when I was a kid, but either I forgot how funny and warm it is or perhaps the nuances are clearer with age... Anyway, a great summer read with your kids. #seacrowisland #childhoodclassics #holidays #summer #raisingreaders

julesG Strange that some books speak differently to us once we're grown up. 5y
julesG Beautiful picture, btw 5y
Emu Yes, it is funny. I remember that I liked the book, but more because of the stories of friendship and adventure. 5y
Emu It is taken just on the border of Italy and Austria - fantastic views all around 😀 5y

My daughter and I started reading this together yesterday. We read Little House in the Big Woods over a year ago, and she liked it, so I‘m hoping she will enjoy this one too. So far so good! #raisingreaders #childhoodclassics #booked2018

DarcysMom I read the whole series to my daughter. It was a fabulous experience. 7y

Laalaleighh This series made me wish I had more chores as a kid. Going to try to remember that in case I ever have kids haha. 7y

The Giving Tree | Shel Silverstein
Pickpick

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Such a sweet story that my daughter demanded we read over and over again. Admittedly I had never read it prior to yesterday, my mom read me a lot of Dr Seuss and not a ton of Shel Silverstein. I may have to add this to our permanent collection.

One of the most #unforgettable books I‘ve read is Anne of Green Gables. It made me laugh, it made me cry, and it put Prince Edward Island on my travel to bucket list. I may have to read the entire series again soon! #decdays

GripLitGrl One of my favorites💗 7y

Librarybelle @GripLitGrl @rubyslippersreads @ReadingSusan @Jaimelire Anne‘s story is so good! A true classic! 7y
Eggs Love all the Anne books 📚 7y
Librarybelle @Eggs Yes, I agree! 7y
Cinfhen This is one of those #childhoodclassics I've never read 🙈I tried on serial reader but I couldn't get into it 😬 7y
Librarybelle @Cinfhen For whatever reason, I cannot get into To Kill a Mockingbird. Everyone loves it, and it‘s a classic, but I‘m not a fan. I don‘t like the movie either! 🙀 7y
Cinfhen We each have our "demons״ ??? 7y
DivineDiana Due to all the Litsy love, I bought the first three books at a Church Book Sale. Read soooo many years ago, and watched the older TV production with my daughter. Watched the new one by myself! 😉 Goal: to read in 2018! 7y
rubyslippersreads @Cinfhen Maybe you should try the slightly darker 7y
Cinfhen Thanks for the suggestion @rubyslippersreads 💜 7y

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️: Started out with a All nice and happy with the littlest mermaid and her sea family and then it takes a brutal turn and never looks back. #WhoKnew #ChildhoodClassics

I‘ve posted this pic before - but what better book for #day8 #novemberbythenumbers. I adore Ramona. My son and I are currently reading Ramona Forever. #childhoodclassics

sweetpealsd I am also currently reading Ramona Forever with my boys! The Ramona series was my favorite as a child. Actually it still is! 7y
Blaire @sweetpealsd mine too! They are the first chapter books I read on my own. 7y
