I haven't bought the kid new books-of-her-own in a while, except a neat hardcover copy of Charlotte's Web (some pig!). I am looking for some ideas on what to get her for her upcoming birthday, but that's only tangentially related to my real question.
Do feel free to rec anything you like, of course, but my question is this:
What book do you remember liking best as a child that you CANNOT remember the name of? And why did you like it?
There was a book I read three or four times from our local library and have no idea what it was called.
The book was about a boy who liked to tell jokes, and who would make people listen to him tell jokes whether they really wanted to or not. He was transported to another land (somehow, I forget how) and got a guardian devil, whose name I forget-- and the only way for him to get home, along the No-Pun Road? NOT TELL JOKES.
Mmm, yeah.
