Three guesses why it was called that and the first two don't count. <br /><br />My first books that I can remember parking myself behind after dragging them off the shelf were.... the Tintin books. I used to read the pictures. I still love Captain Haddock and I'm still debating seeing the film or not - what if it's nothing like the books?!<br /><br />I used to love Matilda too because who wouldn't want to be best friends with the librarian? The book of Dahl's I most liked though was Danny the Champion of the World because I wanted the camaraderie of Danny and his dad in the garage working on the cars and the mischievous part of me loved how everyone in the town was in on the plot ;)Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01821766209132805208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086134026437451311.post-49587493212502222602012-07-14T10:53:00.591+01:002012-07-14T10:53:00.591+01:00I love the fact that books can have such strong ti...I love the fact that books can have such strong ties and memories to our past - I loved Matilda too.

But I remember my teacher telling us one day that it was World Book Day and that we should go home and read a book today, so I read 6 and a half of those Rainbow Fairy books, and I have loved reading ever since :) Others books that are important to me are Split by a Kiss (it was my first review book too!), the Harry Potters, and Darren Shan's Demonata series, amongst others!Clionahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05130992935152800696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086134026437451311.post-48528006782266389122012-07-13T10:27:27.456+01:002012-07-13T10:27:27.456+01:00Lovely post, Sophie.

I've a few but one that's stood out for some reason: The Catcher in the Rye -a teacher recommended it when I was starting to find school the most boring and restricting place in the world. Apparently it meant so much to me that many years later my mum bought me a copy as a gift.Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05628601066057750860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6086134026437451311.post-72722658585302436312012-07-13T09:36:53.957+01:002012-07-13T09:36:53.957+01:00It's always nice that books can mark events in...It's always nice that books can mark events in your life.
