Here are some of my predictions:
*the top book will either be Charlotte's Web or Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
*of the books on my list: The Penderwicks, Peter and the Starcatchers, and Homer Price will not make the 100 list at all. I am really hoping Diary of a Wimpy Kid makes it, but I am not holding out much hope.
