The original Winnie the Pooh. Not the Disney version. I even have the book with the original illustrations.

does the original have tigger? He was my favorite!
Tigger made his appearance in the book, "The House at Pooh Corner." He is definitely an A.A. Milne creation but Disney pretty much reinterpreted his character.

Growing up I was a big fan of Yurtle the Turtle. I liked him so much my mom got me a stuffed animal of him. It was so cool because his shell had a velcro strap, you could open it , sort of like a hidden compartment. Man, I had that stuffed turtle until I was like 15. I hid my first ounce in his shell. !! To this day , I don't know what happened to it. :(

Defiantly one of the most fucking awesome books of all time, so glad you named that one because I would have forgot.

Scary Poems for Rotten Kids - Sean O'Huigin. Scared the piss out of me when I was very young.
A Promise is a Promise - Robert Munsch.

This one Dr. Seuss story sticks out in my mind, one of my favorites as a young lad, The Butter Battle Book. Supposed to be a commentary on the cold war, though I was unaware of it at the time.
