I like many storys, but the one that is my favorite one is called bamse, världens starkaste björn, in english the title is bamse, the worlds strongest bear, have you heard about it?
It is really fun, it is about a brown bear who becomes the worlds strongest bear by eating a type of honey that is called "dunderhonoung" the translation to english is "thunder honey".
It would be interesting to see what your favourite childhood story is and what is it about?  |

There was a book I read as a kid at school called The Fib by George Layton.
Recently I invested in a replacement to the one I'd bought in the school book club in 1982 and was instantly transported back.
That,and a book of poems by Allan Ahlberg, called Please Mrs Butler.
If you've got kids of primary school age, I can heartily recommend them. |

White Fang.Given it to read by my English teacher and when I finished it and had to hand it back she asked what I wanted to read next,I asked if I could keep it to read again.Read it again just recently, 50 years later. |

My favourite was always 'the elves and the shoemaker' I'd get my mum to read it to me every night.
Getting someone else to do your work and you get the money and credit for it, fantastic moral for a kids book lol |

"Jonathan Livingston Seagull" is a novella written by Richard Bach. It's not really a childhood story, but I did read it when I was about 9.
The book changed my life and made me the person I am today. |

I loved the Come Outside television stories about an eccentric woman who lives in a bungalow with a dog (Burmese?) called Pippin and she used to fly around in a spotty aeroplane and visit factories and nature reserves.
I also loved a cartoon called The Lampies about some weird alien/something else creatures that lived in the top of a streetlamp.
Oh, and I loved Bernard's Watch, where a boy could stop time by pressing a clock and then press it again to re-start it.
The 1990s seemed so innocent...but then again I look through it from a child's perspective, as I was back then. |

Chicken Licken, loved it as a kid, made my Mum read it every night. Knew how she felt years later as my kids used to love it and had to read it most nights. If I missed a page they’d know and tell me 🤣
