Top Ten Tuesday: Books I Can’t Believe I’ve Never Read
There are thousands of books I can’t believe I’ve never read, but for this week’s Top Ten Tuesday theme, I decided to highlight just ten classic children’s literature titles that I’ve never read. While I’m familiar with all of these titles, I haven’t had a chance to read them yet. I first looked at highlighting classic picture books, but I’ve read an awful lot of those (easier because they’re so short!). So, when I looked at chapter books and middle grade, I found a lot more titles that I was familiar with by name or even by story, but hadn’t actually read. Who knows? Maybe I’ll pick up one or two this summer to read!

Top Ten Tuesday was created by The Broke and the Bookish in June of 2010 and was moved to That Artsy Reader Girl in January of 2018. It was born of a love of lists, a love of books, and a desire to bring bookish friends together.

You’re in for some real treats here! I loved Winnie the Pooh and The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland felt like a fever dream. 🙂
