I recently found my very first book, "O Menino do Dedo Verde" ("The Boy with a Green Thumb"). My mother bought for me in a bus stop when I was 6-7 (I'm 37 now) to keep me quiet for a while. It didn't work quite well since she started to turn every 5 minutes or so to see if I was still breathing.

I rediscovered it when I had to move my library (the physical one, of course, the other was in my pocket

) to my new office upstairs (I think I never hated my books so much!). Although it is a pulp book (very thin brownish paper in a paperback edition), there is so much tape in torn pages and cover that it stands alone!!
