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

Winnie the Pooh, my Dad used to read it to me and do the different voices for all the characters. It was also a real hit with classes in school when I read it to them.

Machine Gunners brilliant book and my children enjoy it also

I know they have been mentioned many times but it just makes me feel better at having loved Enid's Blyton's Famous Five books. I don't mind admitting reading and enjoying books which are frowned on now.

Only Enid,

The only books we had in the house when I was a child were 'Romany' books. My favourite was Out with Romany by Meadow and Stream (by George Bramwell Evans). We lived in the countryside and I spent a lot of my childhood outdoor, so this book really interested me and was very relevant to my experience of childhood.

Children of the new forest I loved it .

That's a toughy! Enid Blyton - The Faraway Tree

The three pigs was always my favourite

I loved Carrie's War by Nina Bawdon, it brings back memories of my mum reading it to me.

Ring of Brightwater by Gavin Maxwell, read it at school and have never forgotten it. When I was in my 30's I stayed in Knoydart in Scotland and it was as just as he had described, stunning!!

My favourite book to read to my children and grandchildren is always The Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton, there are several books [3?] in the set and are just lovely, plus adventurous and exciting.

AA Milne - Winnie the Pooh is great for reading aloud and my children enjoyed these books before they branched out and read for themselves.

James and the Giant Peach

Professor Branestawm - looking forward to seeing it on TV soon!

Mallory Towers books by Enid Blyton. I always wished school was just like in the stories which were such fun but of course I never had a 'midnight feast' which always seemed magical.

Malory towers by Enid Blyton

My fave book of all time has to be Black Beauty by Anna Sewell.
It conjurs up life in the countryside where everyone knew their place and despite it being written from a horses point of view which realistic kids of today might find strange, I just loved it.
I also learned a lot about life, about social inequality which was rife in the 1800s, also it illustrated morality to a certain extent and after all that's what a good book does.

My Favourite book was The Borrowers by Mary Norton
Sooo looking forward to sharing it with my Grandson

As a child my favourite book was Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the book I really like reading to my children today is Were Going On A Bear Hunt.

As a child my favorite book was 'the Musicians of Brenem, by the Brothers Grimm
It was about a donkey, a dog, a cat and a cock, who were all about to be killed by their owners, but encouraged by the donkey decided to become run away and become musicians. On their way they came across a robbers house, and by creating horrendous 'music' ( braying, barking etc etc) at the window, frightened the robbers away.
The animals took over the house, and despite the robbers attempt to regain it (the animals repeated their musical efforts) they decided to live there together forever.
I still have the origional book, and have read it to my children and my granddaughter who have also enjoyed it

the night before Christmas x

Little Women by Louisa May Alcott

Treasure Island

We're going on a bear hunt is the favourite in our family, it gets read over and over again with fantastic rhyme and the chance to do some elaborate noises, it's always a winner
