    I always liked "stone soup". If you haven't heard it, I highly recommend it. :)

    Stone Soup was nice

    The Emperors New Clothes always sat with me as well

    I had never heard of Where the Wild Things Are before news of the movie

    My parents never read to me. Actually, I don't think my dad knows how...he never reads anything.

    When I could read to myself, I liked Beverly Cleary's books.

    Of course the Disney Classics, "Moby Dick" & "Hansel and Gretel" stick out for me.

    My favorite book was Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What do you see? (I think mainly cause I could memorize it and pretend I could read).

    As for stories in general, Peter Pan. I used to ask my mom if he could come take me to Neverland so I didn't have to grow up. Still a little disappointed that didn't happen.
    I also was convinced, around the age of 4 or 5, that you really did just have to believe and then you could fly. I tried this at Preschool by jumping off of various tall objects. I swear for one second, it worked. At least, that's how I remember it.

    It's a real shame when these are referred to as "The Disney Classics" :rolleyes:

    i liked the anansi stories i was told best, i think. actually, i'd love an big spider/anansi tattoo on my back to be honest. i'll probably never get it, though.

    other than that, i liked a lot of the classic fairy tales i was told, like jack and the beanstalk and such.

    oh, but if movies count, then definitely ghostbusters :D
