I loved to read as a child and there are so many books I want to share with my children. I think "Little Women" by Louisa May Alcott and the "Little House" series of books by Laura Ingalls Wilder are two of my favorites.

I really love books and as a child I got hooked to fairy tales. Stories of prince and princesses and evils queens and witches in a far away kingdom and I especially loved the happily ever afters. It always left me feeling good and happy every time I read a happily ever after story as a child. So perhaps when I myself have children, I would read them such stories. To make them feel good and happy and let them learn a few moral lessons in life as well. :)

Nancy Drew novels Seeking Sasha Journay of the Shadow Bairns The Girl with the Silver Eyes Little House on the Prairie novels I wish i had kept some kind of journal with the names of the books I've read in my life. I'm sure there were many that are now out of print that I would want to try to locate and share but I don't remember them all.

fairytales - believe a childs imagination is increased tremendously by them! They learn about the good and the bad and how to deal with them. I have found that kids who werent read fairytales as children fear a lot more than those that did!
