Quote: Where the Wild Things Are is the best kid's book ever, imo.
True it was great but The Lion,The Witch and The Wardrobe led me to devour The Chronicals of Narnia and instilled a love of reading in me at an age where a lot of kids decide that they don't enjoy reading....
Did you have to hide your love of reading from the tritones so they wouldn't call you Uncle Tom and beat you up for trying to use your brain instead of wallowing in a prison of self preserved ignorance????
