I have re-read Anne of GG several times and each time I remember why I love it so much. Despite really liking Sherlock Holmes, Hound of the Baskervilles is very good, it really doesn't have the repeated interest that Anne does. I am hoping in the next year or two my eldest daughter will be interested in it. So far she is devouring the Magic Tree House books and is about 1/2 way into the Chronicles of Narnia.
I have also read The Call of the Wild which is also worthy of this list but doesn't stand up to AoGG for me. The others I haven't read and doubt I will before the vote. Too many good books, not enough time. There are a couple other lists where I will try to catch up on a couple before voting but this one I am comfortable enough with my vote.
