EGBERTINA'S List of childhood books worthy of merit or unspeakable delight

I'm using an old list that I merged. Some people didn't cancel their books. So there are 5 oddballs in here. For instance if you read a book in childhood (0-20) but it wasn't children's literature - that is okay as long as it had a significant impact for you. Here are some of my criteria: 1. loved it beyond all reason as a child reader (let us say under 20); even if you might not agree with your child-self, now. 2. beautiful literary content 3. had significant impact for some reason. 4. goes above just average enjoyment. for instance i read black beauty at 7 and to me - its just average. i enjoyed it- but no long term delight. 5. any genre; any time period; written in any year. This is my response to Newbery. Some of these books were better than many Newbery achievers; some qualified for selection.
