I just love reading Winnie the Pooh stories.

Stickman is my grandson's favourite book. He would listen to that all day. He's nearly 3 and Thomas crazy!

My grandchildren love the story "The Magic Porridge Pot". It was a favourite of my childrens' and it was always a running joke that, when I settled the children down to bed, they could choose which story I would read to them. I had a huge book of different stories and tales and they would take it in turn to choose a story every night. After a while, I noticed that they all started to choose the same story each night...The Magic Porridge Pot! It wasn't my favourite story because it was quite repetitive so, after reading it a few times, I was bored of it. Nonetheless, I would sit there, going through the motions night after night!

It wasn't until they were much older that they confessed to me that they had worked out that it was the longest story in the book by far so they would pick it so that they had a longer time before they had to settle down and go to sleep, the little minxes!! Now, my grandchildren also ask for the same story if ever I read to them, I think that their parents let them in to a little secret! ??

The roald dahl story......set of 10 books for my elder grandson .

Enid Blyton books .. they might not be PC - but you can't beat The Magic Faraway Tree or The Wishing Chair, or Amelia Jane or any of them tbh! Such childhood memories come flooding back.

We love reading Julia Donaldson's Gruffalo books, as my grandson loves the pictures and the rhymes, and I particularly love how the mouse gets one up on the Gruffalo!!

The tiger who came to tea.

It has to be the three Billy Goats Gruff.I still know all the words from when I read it to my daughter over 30 years ago and she still loves it!

I used to read lots to my Granddaughters, they loved all the traditional ones, Cinderella and Snow white they loved best. I am now an Aunty to 2 little ones, who love Thomas, so everything crossed

Loved to read silly poems to the grandchildren, Michael Rosen a real favourite. Poems are so good, and you can do the silly voices. A real joy.

Swallows and Amazons,by Arthur Ransome,never dates or loses its innocence of children setting out on their adventures.bringing back many memories of my own childhood.

The Elves and the Shoemaker. It was my favourite book as a child. But I also like nursery rhymes, and anything by Enid Blyton

The Tiger who came to tea as Violet giggles allbthe way through it and makes munching noises - she's only 8 months, but loves being read to

The Gruffalo

we love the wonky donkey.

Winnie the Pooh because of his charming adventures in Hundred Acre Wood.

When the children are older, Elinor, by Alan Gardner. Have loved it for years but now unicorns are fashionable for children.

Peace at Last by Jill Murphy

The Gruffalo is the one, always enjoyed by the kids and I love it too

Two Thomas series books - Emily and Kevin. My son is Kevin and my granddaughter is Emily so she loves both.

Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter, is the story all my grandchildren,loved having read to them every time they came to stay.

The Storm Whale by Benji Davis. It's the story of a boy living on a remote fishing island with his dad and cats. He is lonely so he is delighted when he finds a friend - a little whale washed up on shore after a storm. The pictures and sentiments are beautiful. Can be enjoyed by young and old.

I love Enid Blytons the Magic Faraway Tree. I have a copy of the book from the 1960's when I was a child . Its been well read to all my children and Grandsons.

I’ve always enjoyed reading to my children and now my grandson he loves the lion who came to tea. He finds the story so funny

Any Thomas the tank stories to youngest grandson, his dad loved the stories as well, so do I
