Bridge to Tarabinthia just recently was made a movie. It's about a boy and his friendship with an abused girl who dies at the end. Very sad.

Flowers in the Attic really isnt a childrens novel at all. But I stole it from my mom and read it anyway. It's a VC Andrews. All her stuff is really dark and angsty.

The bad bad bunny wasn't Dr Suess I think, but it was in that kind of style.

>.< read bridge in grade school didn't impress me much sorry meant the others than that one.

I remember V.C Andrews from Mp. she seemed to be young adult more aimed at teens sorta thing -- from where it was shelved and who all bought it . ..

Yes Phantom Tollbooth I quote it all the time and Matt looks at me like I've grown a second head. . .

you definitely had more of a taste for the classics than I did, I went on a kick about 6th grade of wanting to read a bunch of Newberry award books or Honor books.. .
