If you didn't know already you're about to learn that I really like kids books. This list covers my personal 100 favourite reads. Harder to come up with than films, this was. I have currently excluded graphic novels, but if those were in play you'd find The Sandman, The Dark Knight Returns, and Transmetropolitan in this list. I'm also as a rule not putting plays in, with the one exception of the complete works of shakespeare, which I couldn't leave of the list.
I'm adding Garfield because when I have had sleeping problems from a very young age, and when little my dad gave me his copy of a Garfield collection to help cheer me up and so I could read it and tire myself out.
