My vote goes to 1984 and animal farm. Close second would be anything ever touched by The League Of Gentlemen or the big yin.

It's a pretty limited poll. My favourite book isn't in the list.

Nor's mine

My favourite (Favirot? What were you thinking?) isn't on this list either, but I quite liked Animal Farm, so I'll vote for it.

Sir, you cannot spell.

I voted Animal Farm.

P!

"4)the hungry catapiller: G. Bush's favirot child's book at the age of 12"

Except, famously it was first published in 1969 and Bush was born in 1946!

Good because I love the Very Hungry Caterpillar.

Ohhhh yes, 'very' hungry.

1984..
its the only one i have read from the list....

classic stuff, made me mad though- hope that it never gets that bad in real life. ALthough how would you know..?

If you knew it'd be room 101 for you

How can your vote go two ways? Also it appears that your respective choices for second place are not on the list

I've seen movie versions of the first 3, but The Hungry Caterpillar's the only one I've actually read.

*everything goes silent*

*Jon 79 slowly backs away from the thread*

Books are for squares.

and?

Yeah, but as Huey Lewis reminds us, it's hip to be square.

Well he would say that.

Alice Cooper said "No more pencils, No more books, No more teacher's dirty looks"

Sorry getting a bit carried away there

On the other hand, Frankie says relax.

Well Lennon said "I'm soooooo tired I haven't slept a wink..."

yes i realise it's very limited and i am sorry, i really got a mental block when doing it and generaly coudn't be arsed to remember other favirots. I also realise i cannot spell and who gives a monkeys when George Dubya was born, he's still a prick who thinks the US is part of Europe!

You what?

Cornetto? Is that you?

Don't blame me, I voted for the other prick. Both times.

My favorite isnt on the list but I voted for Animal Farm. I read it in year 8 at school cause I thought id have to do it for gcse and wanted to read it in advance. Never did it in the end, still enjoied it mind

On the list 1984, not on the list Day of the Triffids.

Ehhh! Your point is? Was pointing out that Bush had claimed that The Very Hungry Caterpillar was his fave book at 12 (probably some lame attempt to get more votes) when in fact he was 23 when it was published.

I live in America and get paid in sterling at the moment. As far as I'm concerned Dubya can stay in the White House as long as he likes. My salary is going up week after week

Staying on subject... reading Orwell is too much like being preached at. I prefer a little entertainment in a book, rather than political propoganda.

I've only read 1984 but I didn't find it preachy, I thought it was a thoroughly good read . . . Perhaps I missed something that you didn't though!

To be fair I did enjoy 1984... I'd recommend it - a pretty good read. In fact it was a reasonable mix of storyline and "lesson". Now, Animal Farm on the other hand...

Not read that, will have to do so at some point though - I think I have a copy somewhere . . .

I've read the book, the film on the other hand which my mate has a copy of really doesn't follow the storyline & is pretty sick stuff.

My Favirot book was published by Skoda.

Skoda as in the car company? Hope it was after they were bought by VW . This is the q for skoda related jokes and aneccdotes (sp?) people.

I have a horrible idea I know which "Animal Farm" you are talking about there . . .

I still to this day have no idea why he would want to buy it

You're wasted here.

I assure you Officer Noodles, I've only had a couple of ales.
