Top Ten Tuesday
Monday, February 15th, 2010
I’ve seen several people do their top ten favorite children’s books recently so I figured I’d add mine to the list. Just like my other top ten favorite books list, I could add so many more books and authors to this list .This list is made up of books I liked when I was little and books my girls have been really into recently.
Top Ten Favorite Childrens Books
1. The Giving Tree By Shel Silverstein
2. We’re Going On A Bear Hunt by Helen Oxenbury
3. Glitter Critters by Dave Carter
4. My First Little House On The Prairie Books by Laura Ingalls Wilder and Renee Graef
5. Fancy Nancy Series by Jane O’Connor and Robin Preiss Glasser
6.Good Night Moon
7. The Mandie Series by Lois Gladys Leppard
This books series was sent to me by my grandmother when we were living in Brazil. We didn’t have a lot of access to good books in English(remember, this was way before amazon. com! lol) and she was great at finding books she thought we’d like and mailing us boxes of books. This series is AWESOME. It’s great for the tween girl. It’s a mystery series set in the early 1900’s. Each book follows the life of Mandie Shaw and should definitely be read in order as she solves mysteries, makes new friends and discovers unknown facts about her own family.
8. Olivia series by Ian Falconer
9. Charlie and Lola series by Lauren Child
10. The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster
Another book sent to me by my grandmother. This book is fantasy based and if your children like Harry Potter, Alice in Wonderland Or The Chronicles of Narnia they’ll like this one.
