Books you've grown up with

So, lately Ive been trying to find some new books to read Harper.  I read to her before each nap and bedtime and the ones I have I basically have memorized.  What is funny is that Ive been drawn to all the books I loved when I was little.  Some of my favorites were the Little Golden Books... remember those?  I have to say, those books can't hold a candle to all the books that have come out for children lately.  I mean, books back then were simple and sweet ... now a days books are all about movie characters or with crazy pictures.  I have been able to find alot of the books I loved and have compiled a short list for those interested.  I would enjoy it if any of you would like to share your favorite childhood books with me too.
Here is my list:




Little Golden Books:
The Poky Little Puppy
The Little Red Caboose
The Little Red Hen
Scuffy the Tugboat
My Little Book About God
