Favorite Children's Book?

When I was a kid, my favorite was Blue Bug's Vegetable Garden. I still love it. I was given a copy of that and 2 other Blue Bug books a few years ago. While I was pregnant. I also loved Where the Wild Things Are & Green Eggs and Ham. When I got older, I loved the Little House books, along with Amelia Bedelia and Ever Ready Eddie. There are a couple I've read since my son was born that I really liked. I'd never read The Giving Tree before, and I fell in love with it. Also Mr. Peabody's Apples (it's actually one of Madonna's children's books).

I don't think that I could pick just one favorite childrens book as my favorite. That would be because I LOVE children's books, even now as an adult. I collect them too. My favorite subject of children's books though is HORSES! I loved horses as a kid and I still do as an adult. I read every kids book that I could get my hands on as a kid and I still read and re-read my favorite ones even as an adult. Some of my favorites are Grand Rogue by Frances Priddy, White Ghost Summer and Sand Ponies both by Shirley Rousseau Murphy, Afraid to Ride and Outlaw by C. W. Anderson [really I love ANYTHING at all by C.W. Anderson], Misty of Chincoteague and King of the Wind by Marguerite Henry [again, I like most of her books]. Those are just a few of my favorites. If I listed every horse book that I liked, this post would turn into 100 posts!!

Oh that was always my favorite book as a child. When I was six, my mom came into my room at 2am and found me in my closet, with a flashlight, reading Charlotte's Web for the third time. It is just such an excellent book.
