But I was never a big reader as a kid..

1. What were your favorite childhood stories?
Tin Tin, Asterix, Mr Men, Dr Seuss, Roald Dahl
2. What books from your childhood would you like to share with [your] children?
Well I'm not planning on having kids, but if I did, see above
3. Have you re-read any of those childhood stories and been surprised by anything?
er, not really
4. How old were you when you first learned to read?
I think I could read a little by the time I got to school
5. Do you remember the first 'grown-up' book you read? How old were you?
I don't know about "grown up" books, but the first book I ever read that had relatively explicit sex in it was "The Hindenburg Disaster" by Jeff Rovin when I was about 15
