World book day was a little while ago. I went to my shelf and contemplated what my favorite book is after all these years of being in love with the realm of stories.
It’s probably one of the most difficult questions to ask a book lover… you want me to pick just one?? (you can hear the shrillness of my voice, I’m sure.)
Since the person who initially asked me that question was, well, me I decided that I could break the rules and pick a small collection of favorites instead of just one. Because really, what was I going to do about it?
What I selected were the works that held special meaning to me and what I feel most influenced by.
- The Neverending Story by Michael Ende
- Lord of the Flies by William Golding
- Peter Pan by JM Barrie
- Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland by Lewis Carroll
- Sector 7 by David Wiesner
