I think my favorite children's book had to be The Holly and The Ivy, the Christmas story. When I got my first job I saved up for two paychecks to be able to afford a copy (the bills were horrendous so I couldn't put too much away at a time--and I was saving for tuition as well). Then, one Christmas, after a horde of relatives descended upon the house someone switched out my copy of The Holly and The Ivy with the Velveteen Rabbit. (I never really liked The Velveteen Rabbit; the book made me cry a lot as a kid.)
