What's your favorite book as a kid?

Growing, Hobbit remains the best book that I read. I had to read it for a couple of times and it was one worth my time. Which one was your favorite as a kid?

I really liked The Giving Tree when I was a kid in grade school. Looking back at it today as an adult, I feel the books message is more meaningful.

The Giving Tree is an American children's picture book written and illustrated by Shel Silverstein. First published in 1964 by Harper & Row, it has become one of Silverstein's best-known titles, and it has been translated into numerous languages.

This book has been described as "one of the most divisive books in children's literature"; the controversy stems from whether the relationship between the main characters (a boy and the eponymous tree) should be interpreted as positive (i.e., the tree gives the boy selfless love) or negative (i.e., the boy and the tree have an abusive relationship).

I always liked this one book “Scrawny the Classroom Duck.” Still have a copy.

My favourite book as a kid was the Alice in Wonderland book.
My Great-Grandma bought me the book for my birthday.

Goosebumps and DIsney Adventures, if anyone remembers those.
