The druggie one? never read it, watched the movie as a child. A Wrinkle In Time-essential Ramona The Pest Charlottes Web Trumpet of the Swan "Someone above mentioned the Scholastic books order form you'd get in school and where you could place orders for books to buy...I used to LIVE for those! I was a total bookworm all the way back to very early childhood, and those Scholastic book orders were one of my favorite things. I loved it when I'd come into class and see that brown cardboard box sitting on the teacher's dest with the little blue open book picture printed on it. I knew what that meant!
Sitting through class until the teacher handed out everybody's books used to be torture. lol "

 OMG I haven't thought of that book for so so long! I can't recall exactly which grade it was in, but my teacher read that book to the class and after that I read it myself at least a few times. This thread is sure bringing back some good memories. 
"James & the Giant Peach" is *still* one of my favorites, as I am a big fan of Roald Dahl and ALLL his books. (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator, The Witches to name a few). Does anybody remember a book about a lady who wanted a child, so she ordered one from someplace and this little boy was delivered to her in a tube? I know that description sounds weird but it's about all I can recall about the book, though I do remember I read it quite a few times when I was a kid. I really loved it. I *think* the title of the book was just one word, and was the name of the little boy in the story, but I'm not sure about that either. I sure wish I could remember what the name of that book is..  | |

How about those Mr. Men books? Those were my absolute favorites! My favorite was Mr. Rush, but I dug Mr. Muddle, Mr. Nervous and Mr. Strong too. I absolutely hated some others like Mr. Silly and Mr. Nonsense. | |
