Fav kids books of all time - Whats yours?

[phebee]

I take DD3 off DH to get her into bed and he's saying goodnight to DDs 1 and 2, and I can hear them soooo excited telling him all about what Moon Face has just done, or what world the Joe, Beth and Frannie have just visited.

Ooble Ooble Ooble!

One only? Too hard.

Some fave fave favorites: Picture books - Old hat, new hat (it was the book that told me I could read); The tiger who came to tea; The journey home (by Alison Lester). And about a million more.

Novels - Charmed Life (Diana Wynne Jones); Momo by Michael Ende. I also loved books by Joan Aiken but until recently they've been hard to get a hold of so haven't revisted any of them. Special mentions should also go to E Nesbitt (she of 5 Children and It fame), the Finn Family Moomintroll, and also there was a series of fairy tale volumes named after colours (eg the Red Fairy Book) which I adored and read every single one.
