My favourite childhood book is "Ferdinand" by Munro Leaf. I read it at least twice a year, and still have the book my grandmother gave me when I was 18 months old. It's turned into kind of a right of passage for me, in that I will give people I know with children about that age a new copy of the book as a gift.[/QUOTE]

OMG! Ferdinand about the peaceful bull who just wishes to be left alone and smell flowers and sent into the Corrida by mistake. Absolutely loved it as a kid.

Yep, one and the same. They are making a movie of it due out later this year.



 
Not sure how many people are interested in non- fiction or politics here, but I just finished Believer, by David Axelrod. Axelrod was the chief campaign strategist for Barack Obama and worked with him on campaigns beginning with his run for IL State Senate through the second presidential campaign. It is a great read and a fascinating glimpse into the world of politics, and especially presidential politics. Well worth the read for anyone interested in politics no matter which side of the isle you are on politically.

Along the same line, I read Alan Greenspan's "The Age of Turbulance" a few years back. I enjoyed the historical perspective.

There's one book that always cheers me up, and one of the only books I could read more than once, it's "The Periodic Table" by Primo Levi. Each small chapter is a short story around one periodic element until reaching carbon at the end of the book.

Is the BBC radio adaptation any good? As books are difficult, and arguably dangerous to read while driving I thought I'd give this a shot.

It should be great, but I think you need the BBC Radio player for that, I'm not sure it's available outside the UK (Canada maybe?). In addition, that's a dramatization, and not a narration (which is not necessarily a bad thing). I think that it's such a good book, that you can listen to the radio adaptation, and read the book when you can, and each experience will stand on its own.

The iPlayer only goes back three, such a shame. Dramatizations aren't to the book of course, the better ones are a friendly reminder. BBC radio version of "I Am Legend" with Angus MacInnes was arguably as good as the short story. The first movie was spooky fun, latter we won't speak of.

I get why you don't want a trusted story messed with.

Love Nancy Bauer... You should check out Jean de Baudrillard's 'Seduction' it's a pretty deep and heavy read.
