What a wonderful list. I've heard of 4 out of 5, but have only read 'Secret Garden.' I'm a big Madeleine L'Engle fan, but have missed 'Ring.'
I've never read 'Anne of Green Gables,' but I have a young niece who's a huge fan of the series. And when it comes to young girl heroines, it's hard to beat Francie Nolan in 'A Tree Grows in Brooklyn'-- that book knocked me out when I finally got around to reading it a few years ago.
I LOVED the prayer you quoted from 'Winn-Dixie'-- that's a keeper that I shall be sharing!
Happy summer back! Anne of Green Gables is another family favorite! I haven't read A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, but it seems I should get around to reading it, too. It always seems people love or hate it when I hear about it. Glad you're in the love of crowd!
