top 100 children's novels

I found this list in a blog by the School Library Journal. It is taken from lists sent in by teachers, librarians and readers. I do love a good children's book. I have read a lot of these books. I want to read them all. It will be fun to have a list to go to.
I am starring the ones I have read. Question marks are for the ones that sound familiar but I can't remember if I read it or not. There are some books on this list that I would not have included. Every one has different taste in books, to each his own....
