Rationale:
These are always some of the most popular books checked out of my school library. They have their own shelves and the children are drawn to them. I wanted to look at them in a historical perspective and see if there are shared qualities through the years. I have also read many of them trough the years and thought it would be good to be reintroduced to them.
