What book/book series did you love to read when you were a lad?
I enjoyed the Hardy Boys because in 3rd grade we would laugh every time they said "Frank ejaculated"

Berstein Bears and Dr Suess were pretty quality as well.

I remember liking The Little Creature (?) books.

I only read one Chronicles of Narnia book but i loved it so much. It was the one about the Unicorn Hunters. I hope they make that into a movie too

I love the name Caspian (Prince Caspian).

I haven't seen The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe yet, maybe eventually.

When I was in 2nd/3rd grade I started reading Stephen King. I never cared too much for juvenile books.

Wayside School! I remember loving those but I could never remember the name. I also read a ton of the Choose Your Own Adventure books. My favorite was the one where you wake up on the side of the road with amnesia.

I liked to read anything Shel Silverstein put out. Goosebumps were always fun to read too.
