Very early on, it was Green Eggs and Ham (have the book). But I remember Put Me in the Zoo; Mr. Brown Can Moo, Can You?; and The Monster at the End of this Book being go-to books. Then there was Shel Silverstein, loved his poems ('But all the magic I have known; I've had to make myself.').

When I got a little older, 9, 10, 11, I got into Roald Dahl - The Fantastic Mr. Fox first, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and Charlie and the Great Glass Elevator, I read several more after that, but I didn't think they were as good as those three. Around then, I also got into Ruth Chew' witch books, Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle books, The Girl with the Silver Eyes, The Westing Game, From the Mixed-up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, The Egypt Game, and Bunnicula and Howliday Inn.

A little later, it was Lois Duncan and Joan Lowery Nixon (still have Down a Dark Hall and The House on Hackman's Hill). Two of my siblings got into Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark - I never really got into them, I just thought the illustrations were gross and the stories weren't as good as a Twilight Zone anthology I had.

As a teen, I loved Firestarter and It and also got into Christopher Pike, some I really liked (Remember Me, Weekend, and the Final Friends Series being particular favorites), some weren't for (I remember being fairly baffled by one, think it was Whisper of Death). And there were Georgette Heyer's Regency romances. The Alfred G. Graebner Memorial High School of Rules and Regulations and the Grounding of Group Six were fairly frequently revisited. I also came to Dune, which is still my favorite, even if I couldn't get into any of the subsequent books.

ayrt

I wiled away many an hour thinking about that Cure for Tattletaleitis and those clouds. And, of course, I thought so much about the logistics of living in a museum. Eventually, kid-me concluded a department store at a mall might be more comfortable (still a loose contingency plan for the zombie apocalypse, though it'd have to be a mall that's on the edge of obsolescence, so no Dawn of the Dead scenario).

somewhat OT but I wrote fanfic of most of the House cast stuck in a mall during a zombie attack with a lot of Shaun of the Dead type humor.
