The Most Popular Children's Book the Year You Were Born

From RedBook:
"Our love of reading is most often inspired by those poignant, imaginative, colorful stories that we enjoyed when we were young. While some of these books still remain favorites, some have been forgotten over time, so we've compiled a list of the most popular children's book from each year since 1950. Curious as to which stories resonated most with little readers and parents alike the year you were born?"
I am a little skeptical of this list because I had to add 4 books to the database...but its still interesting!
