Top 5 books from my childhood

I've been feeling quite nostalgic lately so I thought I would compile a list of my favourite books from my childhood. Here we go......

1: Noddy goes to school by Enid Blyton

I have a picture of me "reading" this when I was about three- I had the whole series and read them avidly

 

 

2: The Enchanted Wood

Any of the Faraway Tree series I loved - who wouldn't love to live near a magical tree that had a different land ( like the Land of Topsy Turvy) at the top every time you went up??

 

 

 3: Bony legs the witch by Joanna Cole

Both my sister and I loved this picture book which is based on a Russian folk tale.

 

 

 

4: Drina dances in Italy by Mabel Esther Allan

This was from my ballet phase!

 

 

 

 

 

5:Danny, the Champion of the World by Roald Dahl

My most favourite teacher ever, read this to us at primary school and I lapped up every word of it!

 

I'd love to hear about your fave books, just leave me a comment here on the blog or tweet me @JuliadeRuiter. Also, please excuse the weird layout- the computer wasn't on my side today!
