I read the series of book by Laura Ingalls Wilder! I read all her books 2 or 3 times each! I love those books! I also read books by Margurite Henry! I read alot of her books more then once,too! I of course read "Misty of Chincoteague"! I also read "King of the wind","Black Gold""brighty of the Grand Canyon" and lots of her other books! Another series I read and love have been by Walter Farley. he wrote the "Black Stallion" books! I'm a horse lover and like my other favorites I have read all this books more then once! So about you?

Grimm's Fairtytales and a Greek Mythology book. I have read them a couple of times. I just don't get tired reading them again and again. Other books I have read too but I can't remember the titles. Those the books I usually find in our house's bookshelves.

I also read the Little House books when I was little. I also read a lot of Nancy Drew and some Hardy Boys.
Along with those I read...The Chronicles of Narnia, A Wrinkle in Time, some of the Ramona books my Judy Blume.
And I admit I read quite a few of the VC Andrews books. They were so addicting!

i never heard of the Judy Blume's Ramona books or VC Andrews books! I heard about the Chroniclies of Narnia books and movies! I can't get into books about fanasty like Naria and The Harry Porter books! The books I read growing up were easy for me to comperend! Narnia and other books aren't for me! Thanks for the response!

I read anything and everything that crossed my path. lol The "Nancy Drew" and "Hardy Boys" series were among my favorites, as was "Black Stallion". I never read more than one of Laura Wilder's books, though I heard they were really good.
Beverly Cleary's books about Ramona Quimby were also some of my favorites as well; I got into trouble once because of something that I said that I got from one of those books. lol!

Growing up my favorite books to read were Nancy Drew. My all time favorite book is Little Woman by Louis M. Alcott. I too liked the Laura Ingall books too.

Me? Just a geekish answer.
"Time Travel" books and "Choose Your Own Adventures."
Kind of weird huh?

I loved those "Choose Your Own Adventure" books! I still have a couple of them tucked away in my bookshelf in my room. :D

For some reason I can't really remember most of the books I read growing up. It's all kind of vague. I do remember reading some books with myths in them about Paul Bunyan and stuff like that
