    The hobbit, naturally.

    It had that cozy feeling throughout (I know I sound gay)
    What was Enders Game even about?

    It's about a grim future where 12 year olds speak and act like 40 year olds.

    Same here, I think it was the first true novel I read.

    Unrelated, but I killed a spider with my copy of Ender's Game today.
    I felt bad for killing it and getting the book dirty afterwards. :(

    If we're talking really young anything with Thomas the Tank Engine in it.

    Getting a bit older I loved Goosebumps, moved onto Deltora Quest (ftw) then Harry Potter, then stumbled across a copy of 1984 and things were never the same again.

    Oh I remember Deltora quest! They we're really popular at my elementary school.

    I went back to read them a year or so ago to find that they we're actually written fairly poorly. I enjoyed it immensely nonetheless.

    I know this is a child hood book thread but I have to mention this. Some guy actually suggested to be that The Dark Tower series be made into an anime. No Stephen King book (let alone Dark Tower) should even be mentioned with anime. I raged.

    I'd rather have an anime than a bunch of movies with ten percent of the books' content.

    You pretty much nailed what I was about to say right on the head.

    One of my favorite series was the Alex Rider series. The series got I movie deal, which I was happy to hear. When I saw it, I nearly cried. They has essentially re-written the story into what they thought children liked, which of course was a complete failure.

    You know, those types of movies with unending bathroom humor and generic bad guys? That was this.

    lol at the girl on the front cover, I'm pretty sure she shows up 3 or 4 books in

    I agree with you on the fact that many movie producers have no idea how to appeal to children.

    >HBO mini-series

    That would obviously be ideal but I'd still say that movies are the worst possible medium for an adaptation. A cartoon/anime would have so much more room for detail.

    Agreed that movies would probably be fail.

    But unless the anime is done in the art style of Cowboy Bebop (the only anime i like and own) then fuck it...just keep the books untouched.
