Books are after all emotional pieces of wood (-or electronic), that's just what they are. Reading books is after all emotional actions, that's just what it is. The thing is, they mean much more than someone might think. Especially when they start reading a book themselves. Which, dear, starts at a very young age. Starts with kid books.
As Astrid Lindgren once said, “A childhood without books – that would be no childhood. That would be like being shut out from the enchanted place where you can go and find the rarest kind of joy.”
Which I completely agree with. That is also why children books are the best. They are the first books that opens the path to this wonderful feeling. Here are a couple of books that have followed me through my childhood (some also made their appearances as movies first!).
- Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: Roald Dahl is one of my favourite authors. He has always brought a twist to a lot of his stories. Many of his books have been adapted as musicals and movies, which are all as equally wonderful as others.
- The Wishing Spell (The Land of Stories #1): Fantasies and fairytales are the epitome of childhood books. This one is the perfect combinations of both. The actor, Chris Colfer, was an author full of pleasant surprises.
- Matilda: Another one of Roald Dahl's book. One of my favourite, who has an important story to tell. A story only a book lover can know.
- The Little Prince: “Grown-ups never understand anything by themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them” Juts going to leave it like that! The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry {Yomna's Review}

- Harry Potter: What is better than magic to spark the love for reading? Harry Potter is honestly a thrilling and fun book!
- Nicholas: This book holds so much value for me. I had read and watched all of its episodes as a kid. I remember watching this with our whole class when I was in 2nd grade. The teacher that used to show it to us recently died and it holds a lot of importance to me!
- Hansel and Gretel: Here is the thing, I never read this particular book, but this stories and all the other little bed time stories followed me to my dreams every night.
- Alice in Wonderland: Riddles and jokes are two of my favourite things and what books is better than this to read.
Thank you for reading,
Remember that your childhood is never over, even as you grow, make your memories worth it!
