These are all favorites from my youth, except for When You Reach Me, which I loved as an adult.

So hard to pick only 3 favs. But I can name any number that SHOULD be on the list. Harriet the Spy. Half-Magic. (I don't think Eager was on the list?) A Freddy the Pig book. The Secret Language. The Changeling by Zilpha Keatley Snyder. Something by Ellen Raskin. Something by Jean Little.

And there were definitely some books I was giving side-eye to. The Hobbit, sure. The Lord of the Rings? And put the YA books on their own list.

dabbe It did make me wonder what age the BBC considered as “children's books.“ Thanks for playing and sharing. 🩶🩵🩶 1w

Faranae YA is usually printed under publisher's children's divisions, but I do agree that in the vernacular YA is a rather separate thing from board books and even early chapter books. And under no definition is LotR a children's book! None!

Also there was an abundance of Roald Dahl that could all be swapped with Sir Pterry's children's books if we must keep the ratio of dead white dudes intact. 😉 1w

willaful @Faranae Yes! These lists always seem so random and unorganized. 1w
