Definitely! I have two kids and read children's books over and over and over and....

I also use Young Adult novels to improve my reading in other languages. The language is usually more straightforward, which helps a lot.

I read whatever my mood requires. I have even been known to pick up early reader books on occasion. Sometimes books written for a younger audience can be refreshing.

My son is 2 1/2 and is a total book worm- so absolutely! I enjoy his books that have a bit more to them than the board books- a few of his favorites right now are: Frederick by Leo Lionni, Duck and Goose by Tad Hills, and Officer Buckle and Gloria by Peggy Rathman. Those get read at LEAST once a day! :)

Sometimes, yes! I definitely wouldn't put it under my favourite genres, but there are some that I really enjoy. The Chronicles of Narnia, Harry Potter, etc. Any children's book that has either a slightly darker element or a great fantastical one and I'm there!

Yes! I have a very good reason for it. The first book that I have ever read (in my own choice of reading) is Barbara Park's Junie B. jones when I was on third grade. And I vowed to myself to collect all of Junie B. jones' books. And up until now whenever I find a book from a secondhand bookshop (cant afford the new one) that is still missing from my shelf, I would buy it and read it. I am 16 and I am not ashamed to share to all of you that I still love Junie B.Jones.

OF COURSE! I love rereading some of the books I've grown up with Harry Potter, Percy Jackson, etc. I reread them from time to time because they give me a sense of adventure and wonder I remembered possessing as a child.

I think I find it exciting to read children's books or young adult books every once in a while. Reading them or rereading them brings back good memories and is always a pleasure.

I am rereading Matilda right now, and I just finished rereading Westing Game yesterday, so yes. It helps that I work in the children's section of the library.

I actually like it more than adult or YA books.

I love pulling out children's or young adult novels to read on occasion! I kept many of my own books from my childhood. Reading children's books temporarily brings me back to a simpler and more magical time in life.

Yes! I still read books that belongs to the Childrens Genre Because those books have also it's knowledge that can contribute to the onld ones. Also, we can remember Good memories from the Childrens Genre. I really love children's Books, it gives me an image of being young and being free about my Cicumstances and struggles.

I do still read books in the children's genre. I find them a quick escape from the hectic life as an adult while taking a trip down memory lane. There are still some books that I read that I can still remeber the first time that I read it.
