Retro Children's Books
12 Retro Books From Your Childhood That Are Still Totally Cool

My mom didn't save a lot from my childhood, so I was surprised when she started presenting my 5-year-old daughter with books she'd stocked away from when I was a kid. Not only do they each bring back tons of happy memories of her reading to a tiny me, but the stories and retro-cool graphics totally stand up today. Although I love a modern children's book as much as my daughter does, there's something even more gratifying about watching her enjoy these timeless tales as much as I did when I was her age.
