We hold close to our hearts the books that started it all, the books that pulled us into this magical place of fiction. Without them, we wouldn't enjoy reading at all. Even though we might cringe when we read them now, we still owe a lot to those books. We experienced the thrill of fiction for the first time with those childhood books, making us want more.
For me, my favorite books when I was a kid involved bears, "tweens", and babysitters.
