Hello,

just curious - what are your favorite children's books and are there any 
commonalities among them?  Mine are Karen by Marie Killilea (nonfiction about 
a girl with cerebral palsy growing up in the 1940's), The Little White Horse 
by Elizabeth Goudge (fiction about a girl in Victorian England who goes to 
her uncle's country estate, and Tom's Midnight Garden by Phillipa Pearce 
(fiction about a boy who stays with his aunt and uncle and finds a garden in 
"a secret place in time".  

these books were all written in the early post-WWII period.  Maybe I should 
look at others from that time.
