Junie B. Jones was an awesome series!
ReplyDeleteAll of these lists are bringing on a serious bout of nostalgia. I want to go back and read all of these books!
Yay Nancy Drew and Boxcar Children! I really want to go back and read The Giving Tree again. It's been way too long. Here's my list
ReplyDeleteWow - I don't think I ever read any of these, save for a single Nancy Drew book.

I loved Where the Wild Things Are! But I think that's the only one on your list that I have read. Crazy, huh? :)

Great list!
I totally forgot about The Magic Tree House series. That's definitely another good one :)
ReplyDeleteLoved the Boxcar Children and Judy B. Jones! Also, I love the cover art for Granny Torrelli Makes Soup.
ReplyDeleteI just added two of your books to my must-read list. I love Sharon Creech, and it's becoming increasingly obvious I have to read The Boxcar Children. So many have included it on their list and I've never read them!
ReplyDeletenancy Drew - I always heard of her and the Hardy Boys but I never could get into it, I always wanted the suspence and blood of Christopher PIke. Great list. Here's my Top Ten
