We're giving away more than a THOUSAND pounds worth of children's books!

Little Women: I loved reading this book when I was a young girl and evidently my teachers at two different schools thought I would too, as I was given the book as a school speech day prize at both schools!
The book although set in the 19th century tells of the trials and tribulations of the four March sisters which still have some meaning for the aspirations of young girls today.

Heidi - I still have the actual book and the others in the series. I was hoping I would have a grandaughter to read it to one day but have three grandsons who are more interested in monsters and dinasaurs!

Heidi - I won the first book about Heidi when I was in Primary School for my exam marking in English Literature. I was thrilled to have a copy and still have it with me.

Rupert was my favourite and my granchildren have all loved Dear Zoo.

I just loved Professor Brainstorm as a child, I remember it being read to me at junior school.

The Chalet School by Elinor Brent-Dyer.

My favourites of the books I read to my children were When We Were Very Young and Now We Are Six by A A Milne. The one I love reading to my grandchildren is Stickman by Julia Donaldson

My favourite book from my childhood was a lady bird book called the christmas robin . It was about a robin finding lovely things to decorate his nest with glittery bits from a christmas tree and the children of the house being enthralled as he sang from the top of their christmes tree. Very simple but lovely I managrd to find a copy for my children but suspect it is now out of print for my grandchildren!

OWL BABIES - My 3 granddaughters have all loved this book for young children and I loved reading the voices of the owls and the fact that in the end we were all happy, owls and all

Room on the Broom

Or even the never ending story...predictive typing!!

It has to be the never rending story!

Each Peach Pear Plum
I read it many many times to my children and enjoy reading it to my grandchildren even more!

The Lion The Witch and the Wardrobe. I loved this as a child, I read it and reread it time and time again. I still love it.

The Very Hungry Caterpillar By Eric Carle was a favourite with my four children and has continued with my five grandchildren!

Got to be The Lion,The Witch and The Wardrobe by CS Lewis

On the Way Home by Jill Murphy. My children loved it and now my grandchildren. Perfect for anytime reading.

Our favourite book was The Snow Spider

"My naughty little sister" was always my favourite

Three Men in A Boat. It's a book I've loved all my life. I read it at least once a year - usually when I'm on holiday - and it still has the ability to reduce me to tears of laughter.

My daughter loved it too. Then recently I gave it to my Grandson, and to hear him chortling away was music to my ears.

Just confirms what I've always thought - that true humour is ageless.

My favourite book when I was a kid was The Magic Faraway Tree - I loved it !

I have strong memories of reading a book called 'Sue's Circus Horse'. Nearly 60 years later I have no memory of the story, or indeed who wrote it, but I do know I sneaked a torch into my bedroom and read the whole book under the covers in one night! My love of books has not diminished with time!
