100 Best Children's Books

A new favorite blog of mine, Book Scout, wrote in April about a list compiled by The School Library Journal of the 100 best childrens books of all time. This is a list that was put together from a poll by the blog A Fuse 8 Production. There were a few surprises, and many child hood favorites, and also many books that I had either not heard of or never read. Because of this, I've taken it upon myself to read (or re-read) all of the books on this list, with the exception of the books that I have read recently (with in the last year or two) or read more than once (The Harry Potter series, for example). I've placed the entire list on the side of the blog for everyone to see. The titles in bold are books I have finished (or have read in the recent past and have decided not to re-read).

If you are interested in following along in more detail, please take a look at my Goodreads. Also, feel free to read-along and share in the comments. I started this at the end of April, and am giving myself a year to complete the list.
