[quote=Anonymous]I loved reading favorites to my kids. I really loved re-reading A Wrinkle in Time and felt it really held up. I loved that my daughter was riveted by it, even though it was a little old fashioned and slow by modern standards. My daughter - now 20 - will still sometimes reference the scene on Camazotz where the kids all had to bounce the ball exactly the same. My favorite book was The Hobbit, and of course that still stands. My second favorite from childhood is The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe series. I was surprised the books were so slender. My son found the second one (Prince Caspian) entirely boring and refused to listen to me read it. [/quote]
