    the indian in the cupboard.

    i couldn’t stop reading it and took it to class with me in the third grade. the teacher took it away from me. the TEACHER took away my book and told me to stop READING in class. i new then i would never want to become lame like her. i was fucking reading and dreaming of having a badass indian as a friend and a teacher told me to knock it off. are you fucking kidding me?

    Definitely Go Dog Go. I practically memorized that book from reading it so many times. One of the first books I ever read on my own, and will bring it to the grave with me. I’m serious.

    Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs. That book never failed me make me hungry. I was a fat little kid!

    One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish. I am a total sucker for Dr Seuss, but this was my absolute favorite because I really, really loved all of the rhyming.

    “Everybody Poops”

    I didn’t read this book until high-school. Thank god for that, I would have quoted that like a motherfucker in second grade and probably would have got expelled; those assholes had it out for me.

    Always making fun of the pitchfork nerds/hipsters yet not only do you have the AA ads plastered everywhere now you have contests about the biggest hipster movie of the year. Good job! I’m surprised you didn’t throw in one of those Where the WIld Things Are Urban Outfitters shirts.

    EVERYONE POOPS, by Taro Gomi. What better way to learn how to take a crap as a kid

    Shel Silverstein’s “Lafcadio, The Lion Who Shot Back”

    Every time I read Silverstein as a kid I felt like I was getting away with something. That dude had some of the trippiest stuff for kids to get hip to. But a lion who is sick of running from hunters and takes it into his own hands and starts sniping them back! How cool was that for children’s literature ?

    Fantastic Mr Fox by Roald Dahl. Dahl wrote some wickedly dark stories, but this one is a little lighter. Plus, overcoming some incredibly self-serving opponents with some smarts and willingness to be creative is a great lesson.

    Everybody Poops: Because shit and shitting is cool.

    LOVED the Aesops Fables. Had two big volumes that had dark covers with creepy drawings. I remember thinking the stories were eerie but I loved getting lost in the fantasy.

    My fav. childhood book was/is “Rotten Island” by William Steig. It’s about an island full of evil-looking monsters that love nothing more than to torture, maim, humiliate, terrorize, etc one another in an effort to bring about physical/mental/emotional harm; in other to be rotten to one another just about all of the time. The story comes into conflict when a beautiful flower sprouts on the island inexplicably, which leads the creatures to accuse one another of bringing about its presence coalescing in a massive war in which all of the creatures kill one another. The artwork is really great, and the monsters are really imaginative and varied. It’s a great one. Check it out.

    I always liked Scary Stories to tell in the dark. The illustrations are some of the creepiest images you’ll ever see and the stories are actually pretty fuckin scary for a book intended for kids.

  • warchild aka the hand of god -- Nov 12th, 2009 at 3:30 pm

    slick rick’s bedtime stories is way better than all of these books.
