10. Poppy by Avi
9. Shiloh
8. Walk Two Moons by Sharon Creech
7. Call of the Wild by JockLondon
6. Bud Not Buddy by Christopher Paul Curtis
5. WaysideSchool
4. Bridge to Terabithia by Katherine Paterson
3. The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane by Kate DiCamillo

When I read #1 and #3 aloud, I have to concentrate on breathing to be able keep on reading and not completely choke up. #2 is an amazingly woven story.

Deb recommends "My Side of the Mountain." (That's not to say, of course that you aren't fully aware of the book and it just doesn't make your list.)
