really, sad. some US Kindergartens are banning this because it apparently encourages childhood obesity

These are GREAT!

OMG, I loved these! It has been nearly 30 years, but I'm sure I still have some of these...

The Berenstein Bears.

I love this series, and they are still quite popular today.

Tim Minchin (Australia) turned it into a musical...check it out

favourite book when i was at playcentre in the 60s. it had to be read to us everyday

I loved the illustration on these books.

I never saw this book in the 90s, the first time I saw it I was teaching kindergarten in 2015. I guess it took a while to het to Australia?

My little brother loved this series!

My favorite children's book.

My favorite ❤

One of my favorites as a kid!!!

It's a classic. Wonderful book to read before tucking in the little ones.

I don't know this one

This series is wonderful!!!

I didn't see this series until I was 11 or 12 but they were fun stories.

"There once was a boy named Eustace Clarence Scrubb, and he almost deserved it."

The philosopher's stone for the original uk title. Don't mean to sound an ar$£ or condescending, but ya know :)

I love all the The Chronicles of Narnia. Read them all in grade school. It's an incredible fantasy/action series with vague Christian symbolism--which generally goes right over kid's heads ( it did mine ) but provides great stories of friendship and bravery.

love the art in this

Love these poems and the wonderful artwork that goes with them. Little ones will love the musical rhythm of the poems and the oddball humor.

Classic!

My sister's favourite series as a kid!

Always a good one for littlies struggling with separation anxiety and a great "settling-down" story for bedtime.

Such an incredible book for older kids--how to build friendships, the magic of imagination and how to cope with loss. It's a very emotional story---I remember sobbing at the end when I first read it.

I never read this as a kid (not a huge Seuss fan) but one of my uni lecturers read it to our year before we graduated from our teaching degree, which was fitting.

A wonderful book for 3rd/4th graders and up. James is the much-neglected orphan who takes the magical journey in the giant peach with his new friends--Centipede, Miss Spider, Old Green Grasshopper, Earthworm, Ladybug, Glowworm, and Silkworm.

I tried reading this when I was about 12 and struggled, but when I read it again a bit later I loved it. Not an easy start to the series though, if you insist on reading chronologically as I did.

Still such a popular book, for good reason!

I was obsessed with these books in Grade 6. It got me motivated to babysit. Babysitting definitely wasn't like how these books made it out to be.

We had to read this for school in year 8 and I loved it. I'm not sure why but most of the class didn't. I then went on and read the whole series, and any other of his books I could find in the op shop.

When I was a kid the author Mem Fox actually came to my school and did a presentation! She told us how in the first draft the characters were mice, but the publisher asked her to "make it Australian" so she changed it to possums and added the part about needing to eat classic Australian foods to break the spell. And there was a stage adaptation with puppets which my mother took me to! Ah, those were good times.
