The Top 100 Children’s Novels Poll (#1-100)

April 13th, 2010
“Perhaps it is only in childhood that books have any influence on our lives  . . . In childhood, all books are books of divination, telling us the future.” – Graham Greene
We’ve had a lot of fun here, haven’t we?  I’ve had fun putting these posts from the poll together.  You’ve had fun predicting them and making crazy stats left and right (read Eric’s round-up of the final statistics here, if you’ve a chance).  Good times.  Good times.
