Everyone has that one book they read over and over again when they were kids, dog-eared pages, candy bar fingerprints and all. Momlogic moms go back in time to share their favorite kid reads.

Julie, mother of 2 From the Mixed Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler by E.L. Konigsburg I absolutely LOVED this book when I was a kid, and I just recently read it to my 7-year-old son. He loved it, too. It's about kids who run away and hide out in the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The story inspired me to move to NYC when I was old enough! |

Diana, mother of 1 Tales of Fourth Grade Nothing by Judy Blume Sure, Judy Blume has all those great coming-of-age girls books, but I just love this book about the 9-year-old boy who has to deal with his annoying little brother, Fudge. Laugh-out-loud funny if you're 9 or an immature adult. |

Jackie, mother of 3 The Mouse and the Motorcycle by Beverly Cleary Sometimes the hand-me-down books from my brothers were the best things! |
 |
Jill, mother of 2 Any book in the "Nancy Drew" series I remember being totally immersed in the crazy mysteries...but also obsessed by how fearless, independent and brilliantly (almost anally) organized she was! Interestingly, both my daughters have voraciously read this series as well...truly timeless classics! |

Andrea, mother of 1 Tell Me Why Series A kind of encyclopedia that answered all kids questions about how stuff worked. I had the whole series. It answered pressing questions like: Why does soap clean? And what are freckles? The book is now pretty much obsolete-- it's been replaced by a little thing called the Internet. |
