Offered many new (to me) titles submitted by klickitat on August 6, 2012, 9:04am In general, I'm skeptical about "must read" lists. They're often derivative or biased toward a certain cultural perspective. So I was pleasantly surprised to find that 1001 Children's Books offered many new (to me) titles. The suggestions are international and cover titles from Finland, New Zealand, Australia, Spain, Britain, and the United States, among others. One snag is that many books appear to be either out of print or are not available in an English translation. I estimate that the majority of suggestions were published between 1960 - 1980 but quite a few titles are in the public domain as well.
