I had a gigantic bound volume of illustrated classics and treasure island was my favourite. Between those and Asterix / Tintin, that was my gateway into reading longer and deeper books.

Yes to magic tree house!!! I wanted that trunk of clothes so bad. I was one that read the American girl books but never had a doll, and no I won't carry that bitterness to my grave. Felicity is my problematic fav. Tintin also falls in that category. Guess I loved adventure stories! As an older child, it was Ella enchanted, holes, chasing Redbird, and Harry Potter (rip)
