I read The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe to my son a few years ago. It was
okay, but that was about it. The Hobbit was much more to my taste.
Where the Wild Things Are is a great illustrated book. Loved it.
I've read A Light in the Attic by Silverstein, but not The Giving Tree. I'll
put him on my list (kickstarting my brain was part of the purpose of this).
Not familiar at all with the Bridge to Terabithia. I'll give it a look-over at
the bookstore when I get a chance. Thanks!
