my favourite toys: my little ponys, color-changing cars (those little matchbox cars that would change colors when you put them in hot water), a stuffed brotosaurus with a floppy neck (poor dead thing...), and my remote controlled monster truck. it's a fun image - me in my very frilly very pink fancy dresses, aged five, running people's feet over with my monster truck.
favourite books: roald dahl of course. dr. seuss. i liked the imagery in the cs lewis series, but wasn't impressed by the prose. also - i had a thing for biographies of long-dead musicians like mozart. did book reports of them when other kids were reading the babysitter's club.
ah, legos. i only ever remember making one thing: a machine gun. i'd pass up meals to work on this. my best one was nearly 3 feet long, and could shoot legos! (i had some rubber band thingy set up inside it.)
