This years top five go almost exclusively to the Wilson family. In fact, if I had not combined the number one spot with the two books from the 100 cupboards trilogy it would be a sweep by the Wilsons.
1. Dandelion Fire and Chestnut King by ND Wilson
The 100 Cupboards trilogy is a new favorite at our house and one that we intend to read again and again. Everything is right about these books.
2. Death By Living by ND Wilson
3. Notes from the Tilt-A-Whirl by ND Wilson
4. True Companion by Nancy Wilson
5. Watership Down by Richard Adams
