WHICH CLASSIC BOOK WAS MOST POPULAR WHEN YOU WERE A CHILD?

[Bansal]

There was Harry Potter and the dealthy hallows (Its a fantasy novel written by British author J. K. Rowling and the seventh and final novel of the main Harry Potter series.

I also liked Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief is a 2010 action fantasy.

[Cheryl Erickson]

When I was a child, my mother was reading "The Thorn Birds," "Roots,"
and "All the President's Men." I sat next to her on the couch reading "Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing," "Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret" and "Watership Down."

[Meenahhhh]

When I was young, apart from Romeo and Juliet, Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens was a very popular book because a popular musician released a song by the same title.

[Frank Mutuma]

Gulliver travels. Am not sure why but maybe its because it was the only one in our school. Got introduced to Shakespeare later on

[Amina Yusuf]

Shakespeare's works, Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens, Things Fall Apart by Chinua Achebe, Cyprian Ekwensi and Abubakar Imam were very popular when I was growing up. It's part of the reason why I become interested in reading.

[Wellington Gumede]

Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens and the Count Of Monte Christo were popular books within my family. I grew up and had much fun reading them. I am also a fan of Jane Austen's work. I just finished reading her book, Persuasion.

[JR Stephen]

Around the World in 180 days and Grimm's Fairy Tales.

Around the world in 180 days was one of my favourite classics.

[Ruqayyah Rafeeq]

For me, it was The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, Moby Dick, and Pride and Prejudice. Everybody seemed to know them.

[Ohna Martin]

The Adventures of Huckleberry Fin is one that I can remember.

[Amberly Ayra]

At school we were asked to read The Diary of Anne Frank, it's the one I remember the most.

[Onyinyechi Orji]

I would give it to Oliver Twist. Every child back then read this book a good number of times.

[Ndagire Hassifah1]

I think it was Romeo and Juliet as I heard many of my classmate talk about it.

[Isaac Oh]

For me, it was Romeo and Juliet. Although they both died I enjoyed the romance.

[IgnisRhapsody]

The tales of Hans Christian Andersen. Or at least I liked them a lot. It is much easier to read those stories than to watch the movies or other versions. The only classic book I remember from elementary school is The Diary of a Young Girl, but I didn't like it.
