Hm. I'm not sure how much the books I read as a child influenced my play (I didn't have much of an imagination...I still don't LOL), but I do have fond memories of Little House, Little Women, Grandma's Attic, Beverly Cleary books, Boxcar Children (oops, I still read those! LOL), and the Anne books.
Going back to when I was younger, Goodnight Moon and A Day on the Farm were two of my favorites. LOL Oh yeah, and Amelia Bedilia.
When we were growing up, we kids (well, mostly my older brother and me) would fold clothes while Mom read books aloud to us. That's how I was introduced to the Anne books, Little Women, Hidden Rainbow by Christmas Carol Kauffman, Journey Through the Night, Johnny Tremain, Rifles for Watie, The Witch of Blackbird Pond, Across Five Aprils, etc. It's a good thing Mom did that though otherwise I would've read very, very little from when I was 3rd-6th grade.

Fun question, Marie!
