"TIME compiled this survey in consultation with respected peers such as U.S. Children’s Poet Laureate Kenn Nesbitt, children’s-book historian Leonard Marcus, the National Center for Children’s Illustrated Literature, the Young Readers Center at the Library of Congress, the Every Child a Reader literacy foundation and 10 independent booksellers. With their help, we’ve created two all-time lists of classics: ...100 Best Children’s Books."

Know that bestsellers are only on this list based on the amount of books sold; therefore, these books should be considered more for their popularity than their scholarly merit.
