My first read: "The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe". I know this may come as a shock to many that these were not part of my childhood. I'm not really sure how I missed these books, but I did. I have had this one on my shelf for a couple of years, I just hadn't gotten around to reading it. It was really nice to finally hear the beginning and the end of this book. Last year I read the middle to a grade 4 class.
I enjoyed this book. C.S. Lewis is very creative in creating a new world. I'm not sure that I would include this with my favorite children's books, however, I'll wait until the end of the series to judge that for sure. My friend turned me on to the Golden Compass series, she compared them to the Chronicles of Narnia, I think that that series is more my taste. Every book left me wanting more. The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe hasn't done that for me, but we'll see what the other books in the series can do for me.
My next read: Les Miserables (Abridged Version)
