Summertime, and the living is list-filled…
Here comes another reading list to pile the to-dos onto your TBR pile! Amazon has just come out with a list of ‘100 Children’s Books to Read in a Lifetime.’ Our friends at GalleyCat have the whole list up, and it’s an eclectic mix of classics (A Wrinkle in Time, Goodnight Moon) and the modern (Jumanji, Harry Potter).
Of the 100 books, I count 38 I personally have read, and 15 which are freely available via Project Gutenberg. Want to do some reading? Here are some link to the freebie ones:
