Loved this book as a kid.


My other personal favourites growing up were the Berenstain Bears and the Little Critter's...







I had EVERY FUCKING SINGLE Berenstain Bear book out there (I swear to Jesus and Moses!!!!!). And my dad really enjoyed the Critters ones more, so he read a lot of those to us!! We (me and my bro) had a MILLION of them too.

My favourite Berenstain Bears book HAD to be a special extra think and tall one i had about Nature or something. Told you about the trees and shit... like as you were taken through a forest... and my VERY VERY favourite (still a strong strong memory) of the Critter's books were the X-mas ones! OMG! They were sooooo fantastic! I LOVE LOVE LOVED them!! The Little Critter's Christmas book was phenomenal. I remember laughing so hard I cried the first Christmas time my dad read it to me as a kid. I just couldn't stop laughing uncontrollably. I can still recall turning the pages and seeing them marching in the snow to get their family Christmas tree... trying to chop it down and bring it home. I can STILL remember looking for that black spider who was always included SOMEWHERE on every single page (almost).... you just had to keep an eye out for him! OMG... wow... so vivid and wonderful still. I want to re-purchase these for this Christmas so I have them around.

Guys, these are fantastic memories. What a great thread. It really is wonderful to have these memories associated to your childhood.

+1 to the greatest and most meaningful thread I've read in a long time! Thank you.

Same as Az said. I am VERY stoked to see this movie (we should it Fahad! LOL ). I as of yet have NOT read these novels, though they're on my fucking list. HIGH UP THERE! I mu5t read them! I'm a fantasy reader NUT! I still cant believe myself I have not yet touch them!

I came so close to buying them my last term at the book store when I worked there... dunno whut happened.

The day I read these novels, will be a glorious day. And if the movie is coming out soon (Dec.?) then I gotta get on it, ASAP, bc id rather have gone thru all the books before watching the movie. (Just a general policy of mine... when I can follow it).

Thanks for reminding me Fay!

^^^ Mais, oui!!!! LOL! I remember I had to read this in its original (French)...it isn't a children's book though...(maybe for French people ) I remember how tough it was to read in grade 11 French class and analyze it and shit...pretty deep...unless I'm getting that pic totally wrong!!!! (Le Petit Prince, non?)

...and damn, how could I forget good ol' Bruno 'n' Boots?!?!! Inspired me to become a shit disturber...

Popples!


















I had almost ALL of them, including the minis. They were so much fun. We used to throw them around sometimes as weapons. Fucking brilliant toys back in the days when I was a kid.
