Angelina Ballerina I almost died when I got them signed :woo:

I also had a Mermaid book which I loved to pieces, my alphabet books, and of course, Disney Princesses.
I was a weird child and I loved reading about Science and History so I loved reading those too :smile:

Yes well Enid Blyton wrote so many for all aged of children. There were the Secret Seven books also The famous five which were eventually made into a TV series. Does anybody remember The Mr Twiddle Stories? Not sure what age group these were aimed out however as a twelve year old I found these very funny.

Loved the Artemis Fowl series and Airman by Eoin Colfer, as well as millions of others - I was quite the bookworm!

I remember reading it twice after I finished it the first time because there were some absolutely hilarious moments in there!

I never read the others in the series though - have you?

These were probably the books that came to mind first for me as well! I can remember I read them all incredibly quickly, and found it so difficult to put them down. Probably still have them somewhere, aha

Asides from those, I read the Artemis Fowl books, and then the Alex Rider series etc. I, too, was a huge bookworm as a child.
