Books you read as a child?
 
I am redecorating my bedroom and I found loads of books from when I was in primary school like Sabrina, Buffy, So Little Time and Two Of a Kind haha they're worthless but I feel like I can't just throw them out :(

What did you guys read as kids?

I also read Asterix and Tintin comic books.

Goosebumps were my favourite, the one's where you could choose how the story unfolds.

Your posts and the books in them remind me of my kids when they were little A.J.

They all loved Goosebumps.

James 09-05-2018 03:55 PM

I have just had a flick through and my taste was so odd I clearly read the horror books way more than the cutesy Olsen twin ones

kirklancaster 09-05-2018 04:05 PM

I read; War and Peace by Tolstoy, Dead Souls by Gogol.... :laugh: Just kidding.

I read so many, but my favourites were; Treasure Island and The Master of Ballantrae by Robert Louise Stevenson, The Invisible Man, War of The Worlds and The History of Mr Polly - HG Wells, ANYTHING by Charles Dickens, and The Martian Chronicles and Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury.

I also devoured War Comics and The Eagle, Hotspur, and the Dandy and Beano and lots of Sci-Fi and poetry anthologies.

And I STILL spent every available moment out playing. :laugh:
