Favourite book from childhood?

Daily writing prompt
Do you remember your favorite book from childhood?

For me, this is an easy question. Of course, it’s The Hobbit.

The Hobbit was probably the first “grown up” book that I read, or more accurately, was read to me. My Dad would take my brother and I and read it to us. I vividly remember those nights, cosy in bed, being transported to a fantasy world of hobbits, wizards, and magic. Looking back, that’s probably where my love of fantasy came from.

Years later as a teenager, I reread it and was blown away once again. Not only did it remind me of those nights, but it also started my obsession with reading. I was that girl in school that was constantly reading a book. Now, I’m that adult woman who constantly writes and reads books. Who woulda thought, huh?
