Feedback Junction

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

I'd like to add a Dr. Seus fav "One fish Two fish Red fish Blue Fish" and "Where the Wild Things Are" by Maurice Sendak.

Great suggestions and I've already bought most of these for my daughter to read (:

I have not read any of these lol

I love the giver

And Alices Adventures in wonderland !! It's so sweet and so creative ! I will definitely read these

I would have to add The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold - both my son and my daughter loved this book!

I read most of these and LOVED city of ember as a kid. :) I definitely agree with reading The Giver again as an adult...there's a lot I didn't pick up on when I read it as a child.

The outsiders!!

I loved number 5 growing up!

Most of these books I have read and seen the movie adaptation too. Kendra, you may also like,"Rumble Fish," it's by the same author of,"the Outsiders."
