I have two nephews (7 and 1) and a niece (6mo) living in a country where it's very expensive to buy books. I send them books for Christmas but there are so many to choose from it ends up costing quite a bit in postage! So it got me wondering, if your child could only have one book a year, which one would you give them? My list has gaps in it but I think DS would get something like:
0 - set of Christian scriptures
1 - Where's Spot?
2 - Slinky Malinky
3 - We're Going on a Bear Hunt
4 - The Jolly Christmas Postman
5 - Warlock Watson
6 - James and the Giant Peach
7 - Five on a Treasure Island
8 - Harry and the Wrinklies
9 - Artemis Fowl
10 - The Hobbit
11 - Harry Potter and the Philosopher?s Stone
12 - Stormbreaker
13 - Oliver Twist
14 - The Dolphin Crossing
15 - His Dark Materials
16 - The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes
17 - The Shadow of the Sun
