The National Education Association has listed their favorites. I won't comment yet.

1. Charlotte's Web by E. B. White
2. Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak
3. The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein
4. Green Eggs and Ham by Dr. Seuss
5. Goodnight Moon by Margaret Wise Brown

It is all wonderful prose and poetry though, isn't it?

I'd be interested to see statistics of authors, years published, etc. I wonder if this would make a good LT series?
