What a scary thought, that our kids will one day be looking back with fondness on childhood/ teenage books, but which ones?!

Definitely Harry Potter, has to be
Dark Materials trilogy

any others?

The Gruffalo and other stories, I bloody love those.

If Bearhunt survives or for that matter Guess how much I love you survives, I will stick pins in my own eyeballs.

A lot of Michael Morpurgo, esp Adolphus Tips, Kensuke's Kingdom, Private Peaceful
