Books and CDโs:
All I did as a child was read, which played into an active imagination and interest in film. It all began when I was learning English in my Norwegian family and was given a cd to listen to while reading. I learned English in about three months and began reading C.S Lewis, The Alchemist, The Hobbit and all sorts of stories. Out of all the ones Iโve read in those years, a few have stuck out in nostalgia, if any resonate with you leave a rep.
Walter The Farting Dog:
Now this is possibly one of if not the most mind numbing and retarded novel to give a child, but the art style was so far from what I had seen that it peaked my interest. I loved books with dogs as the main character because in Africa there were no dogs as pets. I also loved animals because I lived inside for most of my early life.
Dangerous Journey:
Got this as a gift and it taught me the value of faith and friendship, still wrestle with this novel as it teaches a lot about the human Psyche.
Jeremy Fisher:
I would say this is where I developed my love for toads and reverence for animals. As a kid I found it sickening that people would kill frogs or small creatures and would often relate them to the characters Iโve read, needles to say I love Pepe
. I also just enjoy the adventures of frogs, what the hell do they do all day .
Tuss og Troll:
Growing up in a Norwegian family meant I had to learn some Norwegian, so in an effort for me to become accustomed with the pronunciation I was given a series of books about trolls and fairies and mythical creatures. I eventually fell in love with them and from there was a troll enthusiast. I would read them to my Grandpa from Norway before he passed and hope to visit Norway during college.
CDโs:
Free To Be You and Me:
I used to watch this a lot but this isnโt the original cd, it really helped me learn English and not talk like a YN
Hip Hop Speaks to Children
Doesnโt do a justice to the original CD at all but taught me a lot about rhythm and got me into drums and dancing. I used to jump around to โA Tribe Called Quest.โ
Thanks for reading!
if you have any books or cds to add you listened to as a kid please link
TLDR: I didnโt do a lot as a kid so I read and listened to a lot of stories.
