When I wad a child, I think the books of J.R.R. Tolkein were starting to become very popular again.

As a young child, I remember goosebumps being the it thing. As a teen, everyone liked the rebellious nature of Catcher in The Rye. I liked it better then than I do as an adult.

When I was younger, not many people I knew really read that much so the only books we could all talk about were ones we studied at school. Everyone liked Of Mice and Men because it was short, sweet and easy to read the night before an assignment :D
I quite agree with this because not matter what the generation we are in we always go back to the classics atleast I do , these books kind of take you to another level or world should I put across as and you feel what you feel in these books we you read them

I would say Animal farm. I read it a lot as a child and I still vividly remember it in my adulthood.

Wuthering Heights was my first classic, I can't say that I loved it as a child,but it was interesting and gave me a feeling of the dull and cold life of.the character

Romeo and Juliet by William Shakespeare was very popular. We nickname friends after character in this book.

Animal farm was quiet a popular one. Just when I thought it was done being popular we had to study it in high school as literature. I must say I only appreciated it when I was much older when I re read it. When I was younger I did not care much about anything political and how it affected me.

I would prefer Animal farm by George Orwell because of the things it thought me during my Childhood. I read it when I was 10.
