What's the Most Popular Children's Book Ever?

Pop quiz! Yeah, crappy way to start out a Monday, but that's life, buckaraoos. Now then, back to our pop quiz.

Name your favorite children's book for ages 10 and younger. Go ahead and think for a minute. As a bonus, instead of music-on-hold while you're noodling the question, I'll fill in the white space with an off-the-top-of-my-head list when I asked myself this question. 

First book that popped into my mind is Little House on the Prairie, but then I second-guessed myself and wondered if that's really for 11 or 12 year olds. 

Thinking younger, I came up with (in this order):

A Wrinkle in Time By Madeline L'Engle

Mr. Popper's Penguins by Richard and Florence Atwater

Ginger Pye by Eleanor Estes

The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnet

The Boxcar Children by Gertrude Chandler Warner

Okay, your time's up. What did titles did you come up with? Leave them in the comment section. 

I do, however, have a "for real" answer. BBC.com Culture polled dozens of international critics, asking them to name the best English-language children's book of all time for children 10 and younger. Ready to find out? Drum roll, please. In the #1 slot is:

Charlotte's Webb by EB White

Runners up are Winnie-the-Pooh by A.A. Milne; Little Women by Louisa May Alcott; and Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak.
