I keep a list of these to send and give to kids when a gift giving occasion arises.
Second any Laura ingalls wilder books.
Others include randomly the Great Brain books, very funny. Encyclopedia Brown. Any of the Blaze books, beautifully illustrated books about a pony named Blaze. Any of the Misty of Chincoteague series. Anne of Green Gables and its many follow ups. Anything by Beatrix Potter. Little Women and Little Men. The Little Britches series. Katie John. Anything by Neverly Cleary. Just off the top of my head.
BEVERLY Cleary.
Thank you, if you have a moment to post the name of the author of the Blaze books, I will look those up along with the others.
