#ThrowbackThursday Favorite Books As A Kid

My parents read books to me from the time I was born, so I'm a life-long reader. If my parents didn't read at least one book to me before bed, then I couldn't sleep. Some of my favorites were the Dr. Seuss books, the Franklin books, and many others. I loved them all.

But two of my favorites are two classics that you'll probably recognize.

Go Dog Go by P.D. Eastman 

Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss 

Growing up, "Go Dog Go" was a book that was read pretty much every night, unless it was replaced by a Franklin book or a Seuss book. It was my older brother's favorite, my favorite, and my two younger siblings favorite. I read it so often by the time I was six that I could almost recite it from memory. Even my cousins loved it. My aunts all had it in their houses. In fact, my one Aunt has it put in a display box in her living room, along with a couple of other favorites, like "Are You My Mother?"
Dr. Seuss is always a classic, and Green Eggs and Ham was one that made my siblings and I laugh every time we read it, especially since my Dad is really great at doing the different voices. I still haven't had actual Green Eggs, but one day. Maybe when I have children of my own.
