Default 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?

Most Roald Dahl, like James and the Giant Peach and Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Enid Blyton books like Secret Seven, Adventure Series, Faraway Tree.

I also read Asterix and Tintin comic books.

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

They all loved Goosebumps.
