Charlie and the Chocolate Factory ~ Roald Dahl

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory Roald Dahl

I was always an enthusiastic reader of Enid Blytons Famous Five series. A book was always at the top of my present wish list.

My favourite book is The Magic Faraway Tree by Enid Blyton.

The 'twin' series i.e. The Eskimo Twins, The Indian Twins. Then all the Biggles books.

The Northern Lights by Philip Pullman

Swallows and Amazons - my daugher loved reading this too.

Swallows and Amazons, and all the other books in the series, sheer escapism!

I loved Winnie The Pooh and enjoy reading it to the grandchildren still. A very wise bear

Not Now Bernard

Mine is The chronicles of narnia

So any to choose from, but at the moment my granddaughter loves the huffing & puffing of "The Three Little Pigs".

THE GIVER BY LOIS LOWRY

The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe was magical the first time I read it as a child. The biblical references were lost on me then but recently re-reading them as an adult was magic all over again. I look forward to the day when I can read them to my three young grandchildren.

Black Beauty by Anna Sewell. It was given to me by my teacher when I was 7-8 years old as a prize for coming 'top of the class' in a range of tests. This book was a real tear-jerker.

The Yearling , read it at school many years ago , my favourite book.

As a child it was Noddy followed by Famous Five and Secret Seven, as a teenager I loved the Dimsie books about a girl at boarding school. I was so envious. My own children and indeed grandchildren all enjoy(ed) the Ladybird Series of stories eg. The Gingerbread Man, The Enormous Turnip, The Little Red Hen etc. As a teacher I loved using Michael Morpurgo books to encourage a love of reading

my eldest two loved the three little pigs, my youngest loves the gruffalo

We're going on a bear hunt... for the grand kids

I loved reading Willy The Wimp by Anthony Browne to my eldest son as it was one of his favourites. Am looking forward to reading it to his son when he is old enough - I'm so glad I kept the original!

Hairy Maclary from donaldsons dairy with all the different characters such as Schnitzel Von Krumm with the very low tum and scar faced claw their formidable opponent
Love the rhyming , love the names of the characters , love the personalities and the comedy of each story

My 2 DD's,now both in their 30's,loved 'Oh,what a busy day' by Gyo Fujikawa.It had beautiful illustrations and I enjoyed reading it to them.Unfortunately,our copy was used so much,it fell apart and was lost.

The Faraway Tree, Enid Blyton
