Who still reads children's books?

Does anyone ever re-read their childhood favourites? I won't part with my full set of Chalet School books or my Narnia books and have re-read both as an adult. I also still have most of the Lorna Hill ballet stories (lent a couple to a niece who lost them). Also kept the Jinny/Shantih horse stories until another niece borrowed them (must get those back!). DH thinks I'm mad to read them as an adult - he wouldn't even read Harry Potter. Assure me I'm not alone!!

I liked "I, Coriander" too! And I liked the cover! It wasn't a brilliant read but it was evocative and really quite scary in places and the representation of time and place seemed very believable.
