A Trip Down Memory Lane: The Books We Kept Coming Back To

For many of us, our love for reading started in our childhood, when simply opening a book meant we’d be transported to incredible places filled with adventure, mystery and discovery.??

This World Book Day, we asked our team to take a trip down memory lane and share their favourite book with us, the one they kept returning to time and again. Here’s what they told us.?

“The book I re-read the most growing up, was How to Train Your Dragon by Cressida Cowell. It's the story of an underdog who shows those who doubted him why they were wrong.?

I kept coming back to it because I found the characters to be very funny. Also, I really liked dragons.”?

“The book I read multiple times as a kid was Six Dinner Sid by Inga Moore.? ? I would get this book out of the school library every week, much to my mum’s chagrin. It’s a story about a cat getting six dinners every night, which is the dream life.”?

“Although I'm not usually one to re-read books, Guess How Much I Love You by Sam McBratney holds a place in my heart. It was the first book my mum and I would read together and then I later learnt to read it alone before bed. A real classic that I hope to one day read to my own children.”?

"Matilda started my obsession with books; I wanted to read what she read and be as smart, witty and courageous as she was. This was a book that I picked up again and again to be lost in her world of magic and mischief."?

“Charlie and the Chocolate Factory captivated me as a child with its great tale of fun and adventure. Roald Dahl's vivid characters and magical world sparked my imagination. I couldn’t wait to watch the films and to see my favourite story come to life on the big screen.”?

Now it’s your turn: What’s that one childhood book that you've re-read the most??
