Childhood Stories?
#15
RE: Childhood Stories?
I am embarassed to admit that I didn't read The Phantom Tollbooth until I was 21. Now that I have, I wish I had read it before.

Other kid's books I really wish I had read earlier than I did:
* The Chocolate War
* From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler
* A good number of Judy Blume Books, particularly Just as Long as We're Together and Here's to You Rachel Robinson.
* Little Women; I'm writing a novel loosely based on it, and when I say loosely, I mean "Tromeo and Juliet" loosely.
Comparing the Universal Oneness of All Life to Yo Mama since 2010.

I was born with the gift of laughter and a sense the world is mad.
