1. The Very Hungry Caterpillar. The only book I remember reading in kindergarten.
2. The Firm, Grisham. The first novel that I ever read. Recommended by my brother when I was in third grade.
3. Sphere, Crichton. The first science fiction novel that I ever read.
4. The Outsiders, Hinton. I read it in fourth grade for the first time and many times since then.

6. Jurassic Park, Crichton. Read it before I saw the movie.
7. Starship Troopers, Heinlein. The book was much better than the movie.
8. Old Man's War, Scalzi. An enjoyable book.
9. The Shannara series, Brooks. A series that combines fantasy and some sci-fi that I really liked.
10. The Lord of the Rings, Tolkien. Read it with my brother.
11. Mr Poppers Penguins. The first book that I read along with a group of people that I actually enjoyed reading.
12. Holes, Sachar. Just a book I liked when I was little.
13. The Supernaturalist, Golfer. A book that I really liked and still own.
14. The Animorphs series, Applegate. My brother recommended this series and I liked it.

Sergio, your list tells me that you like science fiction, fantasy, being surprised to like something you didn't know you would, and sharing book recommendations with your brothers. An interesting and varied list. Thank you.
