Favorite children's book when u were little!

Solar Publishing is on a mission - we want to impact the world through our children's books! Don't you think it's amazing that you can recall your favorite books as a child? Just how much do children's books impact a child's life?

"Old Miss Twiggley sat in a tree with her dog named Puss and a color TV - she did what she liked and she liked what she did but when company came Miss Twiggley hid" - this is a line from one of my favorite books I read as a child and I recall it like I read it yesterday! It was the story of a recluse who lived in a tree and whose only friends were bears but she shows love and compassion toward her townspeople when she welcomes them into her home during a flood.

One day I want a child to recall "My mom is one a kind, another mom like her must be hard to find. Mom hugs trees and she doesn't mind when spiders and ants go crawling up her pants!" (excerpt from My Mom Hugs Trees)

What are some of your favorite books from your childhood?

I can only remember my Nancy Drew Mystery books, but I'll make sure that my 6-year old daughter remembers the impactful phrases/messages from your (& others)books.

Thank you for your offerings.
