The Dr. Seuss books are more of a guessing game than the others--then again, I did get six of the ten, so it's probably not all that unfair. I *do* object to the Narnia books being in the Wrong Order, but I'm a purist with strong opinions, so.

Tahnan: as you have correctly noted, the books are not in the chronological order in which they were published ( between 1950 and 1956) but rather in the chronological sequence of events in the books themselves. To make matters more interesting C.S.Lewis himself admitted in 1957, that he was not even sure that the books were written in the same order in which they were published.

I am so sad to see that Go Dog Go was not on the top 10, being it was my favorite as a little guy.

@ torerodrizzle- Go Dog Go was published under the Cat in the Hat emblazoned "I Can Read All by Myself" imprint, but it was written by PD Eastman. It looks a lot like a Dr. Seuss book, and it's one of my faves too! This quiz was so fun!

Is Gopher not one of Winnie the Pooh's friends? And I had no idea that Eoin Colfer wrote a book in the Hitchhiker's series...

Only two of these topics involve literature (if that) -- just because words have been bound together between a cardboard cover does not make it literature...these are just fiction books

I am surprised to see the Hitchhiker series included here, as it's really adult satire.

@Torerodrizzle - that's in Juvenile. This is Young Adult. (If only someone could tame him . . . )

One suggestion: Please accept just "Dawn Treader" for The Voyage of the Dawn Treader ... Of course, it's up to you :) Great quiz, 5 globes

Maybe accept Christopher for Christopher Robin? I got it anyway, so it's up to you :)
