I’ve never done this before, but this book is soooo fantastic. It taught me to love myself, warts and all. The entire series is amazing. Highly recommend for a 10-11 year old!

‘the giving tree’ was my favorite. It helped me see how damaging a one sided relationship is. It fucked me up as a kid, ruined me for adulthood

In no particular order: Jurassic Park, Amelia Bedelia, Sideways Stories From Wayside School, Matilda, Goosebumps, The Andromeda Strain and How To Eat Fried Worms.

pigletinboots a year agoSo many good choices below! I was going to say The Little Prince (I read that over and over and over) but since that’s taken, I’ll have to go with Matilda. She’s smart, sassy AND magical. Basically my heroine.

The BFG by Roald Dahl. I still have my original copy and can’t wait to share it with my daughters (the made up words are great for read alouds). For picture books it is a toss up - my list of classic picture books that every child should read: http://bit.ly/IEfDCO
