Children’s Books in the Amazon Top 100
Sometimes I wonder: How many children’s books are among the top 100 bestsellers on Amazon? And which books are they?
Turns out, they’re not what you’d expect. I’m always fascinated to discover books on this list that I’ve never heard of before. It’s like there’s this parallel universe where what’s popular has no relation to what I think is popular (aside from the Carle and Seuss staples).

This list is always changing, so the rankings you see below are just a snapshot in time.
