You know... I never really thought about it that way. The book never sat right with me but I couldn't put my finger on why.
Some of the books on that list I do like though (my favorites):
The Mitten (anything by Jan Brett, really) The Very Hungry Caterpillar (I like the Very Grouchy Ladybug better though) The Velveteen Rabbit Chicka Chicka Boom Boom Peter Rabbit Curious George
Charlotte's Web Bridge to Terabithia Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of Nimh Matilda Harriet the Spy (I used to pretend to be Harriet when I was little. ;) )
Other than The Giving Tree and The Giver (I hate the ending of The Giver, it felt like a letdown and a ripoff to me), I like all the books on that list I've read.
