It's pretty much impossible to whittle down ten years of books into one list! Happy reading. :-) Karen, of course when you mentioned those three I instantly regretted not putting them on my list.

I know about the impact of the Ness book. And my god-daugthers adore Knuffle Bunny. For me, books that I still think about are A CERTAIN SLANT OF LIGHT, LIFE AS WE KNEW IT, and THE WHITE DARKNESS. The last book left me with an indelible image that always comes to my mind when it gets cold. This is a good list, Anna. I know about the impact of the Ness book.
