Top Ten Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted by The Broke and the Bookish. Each week there is a different topic for a top 10 list that bloggers can make, and this week's list is a rewind, which means you can choose from any previous list topic. I chose to do a list on my top 10 childhood favorites. I was an avid reader as a kid, way more than I am now, so I started reading chapter books around the second grade. I especially loved reading ghost stories and scary story collections, but the following books are the series that stood out to me the most (except Holes, which was a stand-alone novel) and were re-read many times:
The Mouse and the Motorcycle by Beverly Cleary |
Goosebumps by R.L. Stine |
Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle by Betty MacDonald |
My Teacher Is An Alien by Bruce Coville |
The Fudge Series by Judy Blume |
The Babysitters Club by Ann M. Martin |
Scary Stories To Tell In The Dark Retold by Alvin Schwartz |
Holes by Louis Sachar |
The Ramona Quimby Series by Beverly Cleary |
Wayside School by Louis Sachar |
Ahh I loved Miss Piggle Wiggle! And Holes too, of course. I would love to read one of my childhood favorites again sometime, just to see how they hold up. But of course the magic would be gone :)
