    ah, the golden books thread has made me all nostalgic for the books of my young childhood. There were so many good ones, like

    Where the Wild Things Are
    the Alfie and Annie-Rose series
    the Postman Pat books
    and many more...

    do you guys remember any of these?
    what were your favourites?

    I loved Postman Pat too. :p
    When my Dad read the books he used to do the little theme song for me. I loved it because I was too young to realise he couldn't sing.

    Winnie the Pooh (still do :) )

    The Hungry Caterpillar

    I was literally obessed with Thomas the tank engine (as was my younger brother) We used to watch the videos for hours. Then I grew up of it and discovered Ringo Starr's other talents.

    Amazingly, I am now recalling a few titles I hadn't called to memory in 20 years.

    Harry The Dirty Dog

    No Bath Tonight

    Nana Upstairs & Nana Downstairs

    Do any of these ring a bell with anyone else?

    OMG, stress, Harry. I don't know if it was the same Harry adventure but one of my all time favourite childhood books was about Harry and his seaside adventure - he gets covered in seaweeed and loses his family, but it all works out fine. Good times.
