Mine was honestly the books of Calvin and Hobbes strips that were released. They were a huge part of my childhood.
My brother loves Calvin and Hobbes. I was at a yard sale this past weekend and found 7 different issues. He couldn't remember which ones he has, so I got all 7 for him and paid $3.50.^This. Most of those books I have on my bookshelf have covers worn off, pages yellowed and tattered on the edges, and dog eared page corners. They made many a long car trip from Alabama to Virginia quite pleasant.
I had all but forgotten the Goldbug searches, I think I need to get that for the Grands.First, it was The Hardy Boys series (I still have 1-70 in hardback). Then there was "Johnny Tremain" and "Where the Red Fern Grows". Then I discovered science fiction, namely anything by Robert A. Heinlein.
From further back, I remember fondly Richard Scarry's Busytown books and Goldbug in particular.
Yep...my children also had the books. I'll never forget how my oldest would shout out, "I SEE GOLDBUG!"I had all but forgotten the Goldbug seaches, I think I need to get that for the Grands.
Is this porn or am I reading too much into this??Probably made my mom read Pigs in Hiding to me a million times when I was little:
