When I think of my favourite childhood book, this comes to mind, what is yours and why?
@Amanda84 Im sure there were more, but what comes to mind instantly ~ Enid Blyton's Noddy series hehe!Β
ο»Ώ@Sunisshiningandsoareyou ah Noddy brings me back to my childhood for sure and Enid Blyton, I spent hours reading her books π₯°
@Amanda84 I know right?! Enid was a true kid's favorite author hehe! π₯°
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou i read so much as a child , not so much now π but I have great memories of the Enchanted forest, Matilda, The Twits, the Famous five, the Secret seven, The Babysitters club, Sweet Valley High π₯°
@Amanda84
Wow these titles bring so much nostalgia! π₯Ί And oh goodness, same?! Like whatever happened to the reader in me as an adult! π
I believe adulting and life just comes in the way most times (': this year though, I've set a target for myself to read more books and get back into my reading habit (or like build one again lol), wish me luckkk! π₯°
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou same, I wish you luck, I need to do the same, get lost once again in the land of the imagination, I love Sally Rooney, Jodi Picoult and Tess Gerritsen. I need to read more too, nothing better than leaving your problems aside and getting lost in the pages of a good book, it can be captivating π₯°
@Amanda84
Aww yes, it feels amazing being lost in the land of imagination. My current genre of preference is self-help/ self-improvement though.Β
I hope you feel captivated in your imagination more often hehe! π
@Sunisshiningandsoareyou thank you π₯°
Childhood was Enid Blyton
Teenage was Agatha Christie and Sweet Valley.
@Creamyyy snap π I loved Sweet Valley π₯°
@Amanda84
My favorite childhood book was Harold and the Purple Crayon by Crockett Johnson.
It shows the importance of having an imagination.
@courageouspanda2006 i never heard of that one but ordering it today, my nephew would love that, he has the best imagination in the world, thank you π
