for me it was inied blyton and roald dahl
Astrid Lindgren was my favourite. Enid Blyton - sometimes, some of her stories were okay. I didn't know a book of Roald Dahl till I was 11.
Tolkien.Bram Stoker.And my Father who would make up fairy tales and so on, to amuse me, before I was able to read.
I never liked Tolkien very much. There are a few other German authors I liked but you wouldn't know them so .. I won't go to that now.
Well how else can I be expected to find out, if you refuse to enlighten me, and as my brother is fluent in German, he can help me understand the language.

For me it would defenitly be C.S.Louis, Brian Jacques, and J.K.Rowling.
yep Enid Blyton all the way! still love her! :) and also Roald dahl yes, and Paul Jennings and Robyn Clein (Ausie authors) and Ann M Martin (babysitters club! :):)
What genre do the Aussie writers work in I'm trying to broaden my horizons.
For the main as a very young child books were not so much read to me as were rather stories recited from memory of my folks with oft times their relating incidences to me of their own childhoods while as later on in early elementary years The Little House Series by Laura Ingalls Wilder were oft times favorite reading. It has only been of late that I have gotten interested in authors that others delighted in as youngsters with only as recent as 2003 finding enjoyment in the books by Tolkien from Hobbits on through to the Return of the King and then C.S. Lewis/Chronicles of Narnia in this year 2005. I know this wasn’t asked but the Movie, Pirates of The Caribbean, I would like so much if this were put into a reading context.
those stories can be funny
enid blyton! Although it is told that actually she couldn't stand children@!
huh? really? where did ya hear that from? :)
My fave authors when i was younger, laura inglas wilder, Ann M. Martin, Carolyn Keene, Stephen king, Anne Rice, J.K. Rowling, louisa May Alcott, and Gary Paulsen.
Lol you mean JKRowling is still your fave author as she wasn't known about when we were young, was she? :)
Aw, yeah, Enid Blyton and Astrid Lindgren. I loved both of them. Isn't it amazing that we are from so many different places, but it appears that all of us nevertheless read a lot of the same books? That's really cool... it looks like there is a bit like kids everywhere spend some of their free time in the same worlds :-)

my favourite stories when i was a child were written by oskah wild.
he wrote a book of short stories for children that was dedicated to his own children.
There 16 or 17 of them in a book. the most famous being, The Selfish Giant. My favourite of them though was, The Happy prince. I put the story to music. i might post the lyrics to writers block.
I can't believe no one has mentioned kipling. I loved the just so stories.
