To even match The Very Hungry Caterpillar there would need to be 52 copies of the ebook checked out one time per day for 10 years straight. The Snowy Day would need ~134. Ebooks don't even register on this type of scale so its irrelevant. It might be relevant in another 5 decades.
But there could be eBook loans of Fahrenheit 451 which could push it up in the list. We don't know unless eBooks are also included.
