Classic Childrens Books HS Thinks You Should Read

Here's a list of classic children's books that everyone, children and adults, should read! They are fantastically well written and certainly shouldn't be marketed as being "just for children". You can tell which are my favourite based on how early in the list they are! I'm sure there are more out there, these are the ones I have read. How many have you read?
