The 88 Best-Ever Children's Books, as Chosen by Readers

"From the fantastical gobblefunk of Roald Dahl to Malorie Blackman's game-changing dystopias, we asked you to share the stories that inspired your love of reading as a child."
Note: Though the original title says "100 must-read children's books" there were only 88 listed (for example nr.18 was missing).
