We were the same read to them every night but they don't read now but then I would say not in the conventional way I often say about such and such and they will say oh yeah I read about that on the net.
 
My mum has always been a big reader, I was never really interested in reading, struggled at school even, in as much as I could read no problem but it bored me, so didn't make much effort to read at home. I hit 17 however and just simply fell in love with reading thanks to my Mum sharing some of her books with me.

Loved the magic faraway tree! Was trying to get them for my daughter, but apparently they have been 'modernised' which puts me off.

I also loved the noddy books, but couldn't find those either. ..

Yes they have!
The original ones of my mums are so old and battered but I kinda love it! X
 
As a result of this thread I asked my step dad about my old books, turns out he has been saving them for me! So now I have all the original noddy books plus magic faraway tree, amelia jane, and malory towers to share with my daughter.

Very, very happy right now!

I have some of the original Noddy books too. I think some are over 40 years old.
