Your favorite childhood book series or book?
For a class I just read The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster, which I had read ten years ago. This got me thinking about my favorite book or series back when I was growing up and I'm interested in hearing what some of yours are...
Mine is Redwall by Brian Jacques. Actually, ever since this series I've been hooked on fantasy novels.

they had better, and I mean better not screw up the movies. the great part is that the characters dont come back in EVERY book, so you can space out the movies.
this has potential... as long as the God-Aslan thing isnt too overwhelming.

Re: Your favorite childhood book series or book?
I'm waiting for the DVD of the Phantom Tollbooth...
Younger, I liked the 2 charlie/chocolate factory books, and asterix comic books. Around 10, I was into this cool series called '<whatever> adventure' (eg Shark Adventure, Underwater Adventure, Africa Adventure) about 2 brothers that roamed the world, capturing animals for sanctuaries, zoos etc Around 11, James Bond! Around 12, Dune series.
