Yeah I had tons of books.... all the Dr Suess books, the berenstein bears collection, Robert Munch (sp? anyone remember him) Richard scarry's books etc etc.... but alas they were all given to my nephew and neice when they were young since kids for me were SO far off at that point.

I should ask if by chance they might have saved any of my books but I doubt they did. But I can find most of them online for decent prices anyway so at least I can still get them to read to my little one.

I think it's something really special when the parent enjoys reading the book to the child just as much as the child likes to hear it. All that reading my mom did for me when I was young (even after I could read she would still read me bedtime stories because I enjoyed her readings so much) it really sparked my love of books that I still have today.
