It must be nice

This little thought of mine is vaguely related to the discussion of The Giving Tree over on Leila's blog.

While working at The Monkey I could help but think how nice it must be to have your favorite book as a child, the book that you always will remember with fondness, still be in print. To have it be so popular that it will never disappear.

For whatever reason these are my 2 favorite books from childhood:

The Great Green Turkey Creek Monster by Jim Flora - 1976

In the Peanut Butter Colony by Louis Ross and Margot Apple - 1979
