Winnie the Pooh!
Pooh! A bear of very little brain ... lovable, lovable Pooh! Heffalumps and woozles, the songs of Pooh - When it goes, tiddly pom, when it goes, tiddly pom, when it goes tiddly pom on snowing. My toes, tiddly pom, my toes etc.etc. The first sign of a snowflake and off we would go. Kanga and Roo, Owl, wonderful, wonderful Owl. Always a joy to read and just as much fun to read to the children. Sometimes I wondered when I read them to sleep whether the book I had chosen was for them or for me! Probably a bit of both!

A brilliant perspective on evolution, and explanation of our position in the animal kingdom.
DJ 07:25:02 | 4 Jul 2011
I'm sure he was just protecting your identity ;-)
DJ 12:03:35 | 23 May 2011
I thought it was crap. Dawkins never mentioned my name once!
andrewgoulding 07:21:21 | 23 May 2011
Ooh.. I'm rather partial to a bit of HBC... is she on the hotties list?
Spiny Norman 18:43:17 | 6 Jan 2011
I quite like Nigel although he's a bit up himself ........
Daddy Papersurfer 17:22:40 | 6 Jan 2011
*waits with bated breath for the review* ...
DJ 08:24:42 | 6 Jan 2011
I'm holding back on my comments as I haven't quite finished yet.....but I can't say it's a page turner......
Sparkly Aph 08:11:45 | 6 Jan 2011
Yes, it is widely considered the worst film ever made - for all the reasons I gave for liking it.

The movie starred a late 1960s Michael Caine and it is truly awful!
andrewgoulding 08:18:33 | 6 Nov 2010
Yeah, I thought The Hobbit was a much easier read, and didn't take itself quite so seriously. LOTR really drags its feet in parts.
DJ 08:16:31 | 6 Nov 2010
oooh, sounds intruiging.......Did they make a film?
Sparkly Aph 08:16:06 | 6 Nov 2010
Wierd but definitely stuck in my mind, only seen the film....should probably read the book sometime....
Sparkly Aph 08:14:31 | 6 Nov 2010
Captivating and incisive - absolutely brilliant.
DJ 08:13:06 | 6 Nov 2010
I've never read it........I quite fancy it though
Sparkly Aph 08:12:06 | 6 Nov 2010
Alas, The Magus' time may have gone.

Spoiler:

To get it, you must understand the concept of Shame - something that I fear may have been lost.
andrewgoulding 08:11:39 | 6 Nov 2010
This scared the willies out of me as a kid!
DJ 08:06:20 | 6 Nov 2010
I remember being struck by this at school and it seemed to resonate against the cold war backdrop. Definitely an all time great and should be in the top 5 at least!
DJ 07:58:50 | 6 Nov 2010
Ooh.. I like weird, so will follow your and D.P.s recommendation. Another one for the list!
DJ 07:56:18 | 6 Nov 2010
I've still not gotten around to reading this... think it'll go on the xmas list!
DJ 07:52:02 | 6 Nov 2010
Holden Caulfield - a hero to 65 million readers and counting. Awesomely awesome!
andrewgoulding 01:48:14 | 6 Nov 2010
Now you're talking! The Magus is pompous, self-important, self-indulgent, trippy, sexy, clever, psychedelic and a genuine page turner.

No wonder I loved it as a youngster!
andrewgoulding 01:45:28 | 6 Nov 2010
"Feelgood" it ain't but in my mind, arguably the greatest novel of the 20th Century.
andrewgoulding 01:42:04 | 6 Nov 2010
The tragedy of Wind In the Willows is that the characters were so lovable that few value Grahame's intent of social criticism.
andrewgoulding 01:40:14 | 6 Nov 2010
Certainly one of the great anti-utopian novels.

'Kill the pig! Cut his throat! Kill the pig! Bash him in!'
andrewgoulding 01:37:47 | 6 Nov 2010
Orwell nailed it with Animal Farm - still an excellent criticism of totalitarianism.
andrewgoulding 01:32:33 | 6 Nov 2010
I found LOTR embarrassingly dull writing with a great story and wonderful characters.

The movies were so much better!
andrewgoulding 01:27:28 | 6 Nov 2010
I will keep a copy ready for when I win bigtime.
Gladys 09:53:47 | 9 Sep 2010
And... careful what you wish for. Should be compulsory reading for all lottery winners!
DJ 08:35:11 | 9 Sep 2010
That's not the original dust jacket!
Gladys 20:34:34 | 8 Sep 2010
To review this book I would have to read it again, but as in all of Steinbeck's works life is harsh. Know thy place!
Gladys 20:30:20 | 8 Sep 2010
Have another read ..... you can still read I suppose? [hedgehogs reading!!!?! ..... funny old world]
