dabbe @BookmarkTavern YW! 😘 11mo

dabbe @AllDebooks YW! 😘 11mo

rwmg 38/100
Some of them I was surprised to see classified as children's books. 11mo

Larkken Ooh, fun. I've not done one in a while, I'm in 💗 11mo

Larkken @rwmg same 11mo

dabbe @Larkken 😘 11mo

dabbe @Larkken @rwmg It is interesting to see a picture book and a 500+ page book on the same list, isn't it? 🤷‍♀️ 11mo

Librarybelle Thanks for the tag! 11mo

curiouserandcurioser Ive read 55 11mo

eeclayton 9/100 😂 In my defense, these aren't all well-known in my country (Hungary). But also, I've never been much of a reader of children's books, even when I was younger. 11mo

TheSpineView Thanks for the tag! 11mo

CSeydel @rwmg Agreed! 11mo

TheBookgeekFrau Thanks for the tag🩵💙🩵 11mo

LiseWorks My score was 33, there I a lot I had never seen before 11mo

AnnCrystal 📚🤩Thanks for the tag ☺️👍💝. 11mo

Karisimo My score was 22. Newer classics I thinks should be included: Ranger‘s Apprentice by John Flanagan, Wonder by Palacio, City of Ember by duPrau, Holes by Sachar 11mo

Faranae 48/100 though some of these weren't children's books and some I'd definitely take *off* a top 100 list! Lots of books from my own childhood missing, in both English and French (some I'd leave off haha). 11mo

Deblovestoread Thanks for the tag! 38/100. Such an interesting mix of books. Highly recommend

Brown Girl Dreaming

11mo

Amiable Wow, this brings me back! I came in at 33/100 because I honestly couldn‘t remember if I‘d read a number of them. My all-time favorite? “The Phantom Tollbooth.” I STILL love that book and give it as a gift every time I go to a baby shower. 11mo

dabbe @Librarybelle YW! 😘 11mo

dabbe @curiouserandcurioser You kicked my sorry butt! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 11mo

dabbe @eeclayton Absolutely no defense needed! I believe these were sided towards the UK as well. Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 11mo

dabbe @TheSpineView YW! 😘 11mo

dabbe @CSeydel You mean we shouldn't have LOTR and WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE on the same list? 🤩😂🤩 11mo

dabbe @TheBookgeekFrau YW! 😘 11mo

dabbe @LiseWorks Same here! I scored 34, so we're in great company together! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 11mo

dabbe @AnnCrystal YW! 😘 11mo

dabbe @Karisimo Agree 💯! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 11mo

dabbe @Faranae It was an interesting assortment, wasn't it? Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 11mo

dabbe @Deblovestoread Agree 💯! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 11mo

dabbe @Amiable And I can't believe I have never read that one! It's now on my TBR! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 11mo

TheLudicReader Yikes. Only 25. But some of those I have never even heard of! 11mo

dabbe @TheLudicReader Same here. Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 11mo

Lynnsoprano This made me feel really old. I only got 15, and most of those are books I read with my kids or because of my kids (Harry Potter). I remember reading excerpts of some things on the list that were in anthologies we had, but not the entire book. My uncle worked for a publishing house, so I was supplied with lots of good books, but not books on this list. 11mo

mom2bugnbee 47 here. But who in the world thinks that The Lord of the Rings and Brown Girl Dreaming is a children's book? 👀 11mo

MonicaLoves2Read I only got 26 11mo

dabbe @Lynnsoprano I'm sorry to make you feel old! 😞 There were quite a few that I did not recognize either. Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 11mo

dabbe @mom2bugnbee That's been a consensus from this list. Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 11mo

dabbe @MonicaLoves2Read You're in good company; I'm right around there, too! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 11mo

Catsandbooks I got 25. No Eric Carle?! I also loved the Junie B. Jones series and magic tree house series 11mo

Librarybelle Finally took this! I scored 27, but there were several more I wasn‘t sure if I had actually read or just know the storyline. Interesting list, with a few surprises. 11mo

Texreader Thank you for the tag!! 11mo

Bklover @rwmg 38 for me too! So many others I‘d have on that list though! 11mo

The_Penniless_Author 32 for me, though if you count having read excerpts or watched the movie I could tack on another 4 or 5. I'm actually surprised it's that high - this is a BBC list, and I know children's books don't travel across the Atlantic as reliably as adult fiction. 11mo

dabbe @Catsandbooks “The Hungry Caterpillar“ was on there! Give yourself one more point! 🤩 Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🖤🩶 11mo

dabbe @Librarybelle A list that was quite all over the place! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🖤🩶 11mo

dabbe @Texreader YW! 😘 11mo

dabbe @Bklover I can think of quite a few, too! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🖤🩶 11mo

dabbe @The_Penniless_Author IKR? And seeing a movie counts IMHO! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🖤🩶 11mo

thebacklistbook 27/100 there were some I couldn't remember. I might've read them, but I wouldn't know it. 11mo

dabbe @thebacklistbook Same here + there were so many I had never even heard of! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🖤🩶 11mo

Andrew65 Thanks for the tag 😊 11mo

Patchshank I got 30. Great list. Got a bit nostalgic. 11mo

dabbe @Andrew65 YW! 🤩 11mo

dabbe @Patchshank I did, too! And added to my TBR of course! Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🖤🩶 11mo

PurpleyPumpkin I only got 2! 😅 This list definitely added to my TBR. 📚 10mo

dabbe @PurpleyPumpkin Same here! I added quite a few from the Newbery list as well. Thanks for playing and sharing! 🩶🖤🩶 10mo
