“A children's story that can only be enjoyed by children is not a good children's story in the slightest.” This C.S. Lewis quote comes to mind whenever I reread a children's classic - they truly are able to be treasured and enjoyed for life!

[@elizabethgardner6832]

"Algún día llegarás a la edad en que nuevamente gozarás de los cuentos de hadas." = "Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again." CS Lewis I'm reading the Narnia books in Spanish and listening to them again in English.

[@lindastapleton2324]

I am in my late seventies, and still love Children’s classics! I don’t think we ever out grow our love of classics!

[@LL-vn4hl]

Anne of Green Gables was the book that really made me into a reader as a child, I love it so much, as well as the 80's mini series adaptation

[@renee1292]

As a teacher of early childhood, a book lover, and lover of children's classics, this is a beautiful overview of beautiful books!!

[@marianaharrison6307]

I love Little Women, Anne of Green Gables, The Chronicles of Narnia, and The Little Prince myself!! I also like Mary Poppins and Roald Dahl's books a lot! If you haven't read it yet, I highly recommend The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett, it's one of my absolute favourite books!!!

[@msguinevere3702]

The velveteen rabbit, Alice in wonderland, Paddington Bear, and Freddy the pig!

[@differentisbeautiful9415]

I think you would love pippi longstocking by Astrid Lindgren it's is one of my favorite childrens classics

[@AnnaMaledonPictureBookAuthor]

Yes! Of course! Among my top favourites..

[@katiehope2132]

Echoing many others, but my favorite growing up was A Little Princess. I first watched the Shirley Temple version on VHS and then got the book finally. This edition was illustrated by Tasha Tudor. I just remember reading and rereading the book and it inspiring all of the stories I would write.

[@AnnaMaledonPictureBookAuthor]

I loved that book too as a child!

[@miriamelizabethreads]

The Blue Castle is one of my favourite books of all time, I sometimes struggle to decide if I love IT or Anne more 😂

[@Jane4077]

Carolyn, I'm so thrilled that the Ladybird books I sent you are on your beautiful bookshelves. I'm so glad you like them.

[@adrienne4028]

My favorites are: The Wind in the Willows, James and the Giant Peach, The Little Princess, The Giving Tree, Sylvester and the Magic Pebble, Make Way For Ducklings,The Borrowers, Caps For Sale and all of Eric Carle's picture books. Retired elementary teacher here. I've read hundreds. 😂📚

[@kassandra4929]

girl I live for these, thank you !! I always longed for bookshelf tours that were more than just the titles of each book and included the memories and details associated with each book for that particular person. this series fits that wish exactly and it's just the epitome of calming and charming. 😊❤

[@yvettemaldonado3725]

Heidi is a fantastic novel one of my favorites I have 2 different copies. Little Women another favorite of mine, The Secret Garden is a beautiful story a must read

[@SoClose15]

really loved this video, I'm studying children's literature at university at the moment so I'm trying to expand my reading in this area ^-^ some favourites from my children were "Black Beauty" by Anna Sewell, and the Blinky Bill 90s tv series

[@ahandfulofbliss3045]

This video is just wonderful! so good for the soul ❤

[@myecochoice2872]

I loved the books about Laura Ingalls when i was a child. They are far from the old tv-series “The little house on the prairie” and so much better. I have the books on my shelf and your video inspired me to reread them👍🏻 /Anna

[@annawaits690]

As soon as you said your favorite movie was You've got mail, I hit the subscribe button so fast. Omg ! "Kindred spirits" as Anne would say.

[@denisefreitas6727]

I absolutely loved this vídeo! I'm so happy we share the love for the same children's classics. Love your beautiful editions. 💖💖✨

[@emilycurnow389]

I love to see L M Montgomery on your shelves. My favourite books of hers have always been 'Rilla of Ingleside' and the Emily trilogy. I have read them all many times. Xx

[@chelleandpoppy6379]

Anne of Windy Poplars was my favorite! 😍 I’m currently slowly rereading them for the first time in 14 years, and I’m surprised by how much I remember! I never finished the last book in the series. I was 10 when I first read them, so I remember not really understanding the last book and planning on returning to it later!

[@chaimae028]

hello carolyn my favourite children classic of all time is daddy long-legs by jean webster this book always brings me a lot of comfort

[@stephenblair2554]

The third Narnia book The Voyage of the Dawn Treader is a masterpiece

[@CarolynMarieReads]

I’m so glad to hear that! I’d love to read the whole series!

[@hollyludlow2460]

One of my favourite classics too

[@doowopshopgal]

This was wonderful to see. Loved it. Did you grow up with the Nancy Drew mysteries ? I couldn’t get enough of those.

[@autumnrose_noseinabook]

You need to read The Blue Castle soon! It's a great spring/summer read. It's my favorite L.M.Montgomery!! It's actually one of the two of her adult books. The other is A Tangled Web :)

[@tstockto]

Wow that's a great children's classics collection! If I were to suggest a few more, I would say The Secret Garden and A Little Princess. Also, I read The Art of Winnie the Pooh after seeing it on your channel and learned the illustrator of Mary Poppins is actually E.H. Shepard's daughter (Mary Shepard).

[@AnnaMaledonPictureBookAuthor]

I second your recommendations. I loved those two. That's such an awesome fun fact about Mary Shepard.

[@BMTitus]

I enjoyed Jonathon Livingston Seagull when I was young.

[@gym24r79]

Your vlogs are like the ICING on the CAKE. Sooo... Gooood... thanks for making this sweet video full of sugar and sweetens.

That’s incredibly sweet of you to say! Thank you :)

[@CaptainJoe94]

Baby Island was my most favorite book growing up! My copy is so worn from reading it over and over.

[@morganecachia6501]

I haven’t read that many children classics but my favorite is definitely Peter Pan by J M Barrie ! ❤️

[@Kelly-iq2sn]

i love finding a fellow long islander on book tube

[@Noa-cc9ur]

My absolute favourite genre ❤️

[@girlmeetschaos]

oh! I have the same Charlotte's web! It was a gift an antique shop owner gave to me :)

[@slavabart7845]

I love the Moomin Trolls, especially the comet and the winter books, but generally all of it. Highly recommend them and the illustrations. Also, Rabelais's Gargantua and Pantagruel, illustrated by Gustave Dore. I have an old cloth-bound volume where that is combined with Swift's Gulliver and with Baron Munchausen, other old favorites. The Three Fat Men is a very popular Russian classic, by Yuri Olesha. You can find a few illustrated English translations on archive org.

[@silviafrassineti5214]

My favourite books were\ are Little Women. But now I need to read again Little Prince. Another book I loved and I can recommend reading Silver Skates by Mary Mapes Dodge. Friendship solidarity and honest work,, a beautiful story with so many values

[@maartjedegroot9598]

The secret garden and Little princess are so sweet. Definitely worth a read. And of course all Roald Dahl. Especially Danny, the champion of the world.

[@stephaniereese4949]

Anne of the Island is my favorite too! Love all the heart annotations! 🥰

[@sharedoverteacom]

Hi. When will classics be? I cannot wait 😁

[@dohabeshir9405]

That's adorable! 💜 I recommend you "daddy long legs" it's so beautiful and heartwarming

[@mahelite2692]

You must read The blue castle it's one of my all time favorites you will adore it I'm sure of that. Also I really enjoyed this video ✨💫

[@anthonyskrobul3726]

Thank you for this great discussion of children's classics. My favorite children's classic is "The Twenty-One Balloons" by William Pene du Bois. This book got me into reading books by Jules Verne and by H. G. Wells. I love it and I recommend it highly.

[@GiuliaSlade]

I have such fond memories of reading "An Old-fashioned Girl" by Louisa May Alcott as a child🤗

[@margueritemitchell1829]

Hello from British Columbia Canada 🇨🇦👋👍❤️ we had hard covers of all those books growing up (they had been my mom's, she was a reader) my favourite LM Montgomery is A Tangled Web, adult hilarious 🙂😫 my girlfriend gave me Le Petit Prince yes on French...we read all the Enid Blytons.. Noddy and Big Ears. Adventurous Four. Famous Five ( some people say racist but remember when they were written) where is your Kenneth Grahame ?? Wind in the Willows??we also had Thornton W Burgess "The Adventures of Reddy Fox 🦊 Sammy Crow, and many more.

[@msguinevere3702]

I love A Tangled Web too - seems like no one's ever heard of it!

[@hollyludlow2460]

Matilda, the secret garden, black beauty, wind in the willows, I need to read more too

[@hat7808]

Aww I love the Anne of Green Gables series. Anne of Green Gables is my most reread book. I ordered your portrait of L.M. Montgomery and I’m very excited hang it near my bookshelf

[@juliek4474]

My favourite children's classic is Momo by Michael Ende. Thank you for the wonderful videos that you create! Lots of love from Germany

[@sherrirabinowitz4618]

I recommend Little Men and Jo's Boys, the two later parts of Little Women. Little Men is about a school Jo starts. And Jo's boys are about her sons. I recently bought The Little Prince and A Little Princess. I had to get The Little Prince between your recommendations and others on KZbin, but I waited till I found a pretty cover. Mine is published by Mariner Books. And my new A Little Princess is published by Puffin Classics.

[@sophiekimber9482]

If you love Ballet Shoes, I would highly recommend the movie! It's one of my childhood favourites :)

[@K.PoojashriVIIIB-wq3nd]

Anne of green Gables Mind blowing ❤❤❤❤

[@femsfables]

I just finished reading the Emily of New Moon trilogy and these books just filled my heart with joy and bliss! I love so many children's stories, but L.M. Montgomery's works will always be just a little extra special and magical to me! I loved seeing your collection

[@estelarubin764]

Thank you so much for the lovely video! I love your collection of children's books! My all time favorite is the Little Prince. I have read it so many times. Your edition of it is gorgeous. I also like the chronicles of Narnia series and Ann of Green Gables

[@CarolynMarieReads]

Aww I’m so glad you love them too! 📚✨

[@mariaabernalm]

Hi Carolyn ☺️, thanks for showing us your beautiful collection. I love children’s literature, so here are some of my favorite books (that I highly recommend you): Heidi (please read it, it’s beautiful in every way), The secret garden, Peter Pan and Bridge to Terabithia. I hope you enjoy them and a big thank you for your content from Colombia 🙂📚✨.

[@LuminousLibro]

I reread Matilda every few years, and love it more each time!

[@AnnaMaledonPictureBookAuthor]

I grew up with L.M. Montgomery's books from the library. I don't know how many times I read AoGG. I only purchased my own copies when I was an adult in my twenties. I learned English by reading them with a dictionary. AoGG I purchased new from a bookstore, but the rest are very old editions in green canvas fabric, most of them probably originally had dust covers. I love all stories by L.M.M. You have very similar taste in books to me, but I still have so many classics that I haven't read, but I'm excited to read them with my kids. There are so many beautiful editions now that it's hard to choose. We are about to start Winnie de Pooh's stories. I would suggest you read/get the Secret Garden as well. I loved that book too, as well as the movie. I really liked the name Colin, so it was quite funny that when I moved to Scotland from Poland, the first Scottish male I befriended was called Colin.

[@rosanaamira274]

Lovely video, my dear Carolyn!

[@dsalet1]

It’s interesting how you said reading the Anne books felt like growing up with her, because that’s how I felt reading Edmund Morris’s three-volume biography of Theodore Roosevelt.

[@ewelinahernon6556]

My favourites are The Little Prince, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Winnie the Pooh :) I'd recommend The Secret Garden & A Little Princess, also the Moomintrolls series :) This year I'm planning to read Peter Pan, The Wind in the Willows & Anne :)

[@morganecachia6501]

Also thank you for this video ! It feels so good to spend my lunch break with you and your books 🥰 just added Mary Poppins to my tbr, I also grew up with the movie and somehow never knew it was also a book

[@davidpercival6326]

Hi from the uk I love childrens classics especially watching the different movie versions of them my fave movie is the jungle book from Walt Disney couldn’t get into the book my fave childrens book is little women

[@nannybells]

when i was a kid my favorites were a little princess, daddy long legs & books by comtesse de segur :')

[@betinaceciliafeld9854]

Lovely video! Little women (I mean the first volume) and The Little Prince are two of my favourite books from my childhood. Alice's Adventures in Wonderland was another favourite. I also grew up reading an abridged edition of Jane Eyre so, even when it's not for children I count it among my childhood readings. I can't wait for the next episodes of this series!

[@laurahailstone5835]

Super late to the comments but I've been loving rewatching your bookshelf series and realised i hadn't watched this one, some of my favorite children's classics are Heidi, Greyfriar's Bobby, The Neverending Story, The Railway Children, Oscar Wilde's fairy tales, The Secret Garden and The Animals of Farthing Wood. I also love Where the Mountain Meets the Moon, I'm not sure it's a classic but sure it will be. Thank you for so much for showing us your fantastic library, i love seeing other people's books and seeing the different editions.

[@Hannahlizmay88]

Hope you can add Peter Pan to your shelves one day!🧚

[@differentisbeautiful9415]

I am reading the BFG and it's lovely so far

[@alicek681]

Little Women and The Little Prince are my favorites! I love them so much. I know you adore Russian classics, so I would recommend trying out “The Golden Key or the Adventures of Burattino.” It’s sort of like a Russian adaptation of Pinocchio. I am not sure if there is a book in English, but I grew up with the movie. It was one of my favorites growing up.

[@Druklet]

If you have any interest in sailing, I would recommend the Arthur Ransome books. I also love Dick King-Smith and, if you liked Anne, try to find 'Jane of Lantern Hill' which is also by L.M. Montgomery.

[@shelley8897]

I adore your videos. Just to let you know the order of Emily is New moon, then Emily climbs and then quest. Just in case you read them the order you mention in this video. Thank you for everything you do. ❤

[@sandyrivers3037]

I ran to Barnes and Noble and bought a beautiful hard copy of Ann of Green Gables today! I loved the Ann with an E! I don’t like watching movie first , do I hope I love the book as much!!

[@user-xl5yf5yb5b]

Have you read Ernest and Celestine by Gabriel Vincent? There are very cute pictures in the book. And the cartoon is also amazing! To make you interested, I’ll say that Celestine is the mouse who draws

[@naboolicious6283]

That first one is a big hit in China!

[@Hansg24937]

Noel streatfield is my favourite childrens writer, if you are able I recommend reading her other books as well, dancing shoes, skating boots and Thursdays child are my personal favourites. Some of her novels are hard to access but definitely worth it.

[@diananwilati6948]

Carolyn thanks for sharing this beautiful shelf and mind blowing covers😍 have you read Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass?

[@franziskak.5812]

I definitely want to read the Anne of Greengables series this year, I watched the Netflix series and absolutely loved it! It reminds me of my favorite classic as a child "Der Trotzkopf". Like Anne of Greengables it is about a young girl who tries to find her place in the world. The series follows her through her entire life until being a grandmother. Ilse (the protagonist) is witty, funny, and sweet, I think you would very much enjoy it. "Der Trotzkopf" is a German children's classic by Emmy von Rhoden and was first published in 1885. Since I read it in german, I can not recommend a particular English translation, according to Wikipedia there are two available: Emmy von Rhoden: Taming a Tomboy. Translated by Felix Leopold Oswald. New York: W. L. Allison, 1898. Emma von Rhoden: An Obstinate Maid. Translated by Mary E. Ireland. Philadelphia: G. W. Jacobs, 1898.

[@svitlanaivanenko9042]

You inspired me to read the anne series. My daughter got the set for her birthday and I am excited to dive into it now

[@nadeshkaholmes9511]

I love your collection so much! ❤ Children's classics are such a safe place for me. I just wanted to clarify something, the orden of Emily of New Moon series is Emily of New Moon, Emily Climbs and finally, Emily's Quest. I think you switched the second book for the third book there hehe. I love Anne of Green Gables so much. I read Anne of Windy Poplars when I was like 14 y/o , (My aunt gave it to my mom when they were young and I grabbed it when I started getting interested in books) I had no idea what it was about lol but I read it like 3 times because I was in love with the writing and Anne's character. After years I forgot about it until I found out about the tv show. After that I read the whole series and they've become one of my favorite series of all time. I'm planning to read all L. M. Montgomery's books. And my dream is to have that book set but in spanish (my native language) 😭 I think it'll be hard to get tho. I just love the covers so much, I need to have them with those covers. Anyway, this comment is already too long haha. Btw I'm currently reading Betsy-Tacy series by Maud Hart Lovelace, same as Anne's series these books follow the main characters until they become adults. This first book is set in roughly 1898-1899. I think you should give it a try.

You have such lovely editions. How do you keep them in such a pristine condition. Nice knowing that youngsters still enjoy Louisa Alcott and L. M.

I've read them as a little girl and would love to know if they are still available.

Hi

[@randolphpinkle4482]

But what books did you actually read as a child? I can't believe you didn't read at least some of these or myriad others as a child. I read most of these before I was 12 years old--well, only Anne of Green Gables of that collection--but Winnie the Pooh, Mary Poppins, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, the Narnia Series, and so many more that were not mentioned like Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn, Hans Brinker and the Silver Skates, the Hobbit, The Sword of Shannara, and on and on. Did you come to reading later in life?

[@jcjessica]

Oh please DO read Heidi! I first read it in Year 9(I borrowed it from the library of my middle school) and I absolutely ADORED it!😭💚👒🏞

[@jcjessica]

Heidi is the book that got me into reading children’s classics, while The Little Prince is my favourite book of all time(first read it when I was in Year 7, which is also the same year The Little Prince movie was released ; the fact that I’m an avid Little Prince fan was basically solidified then)!
