What's Your Favorite Book?

This year we've already been reading so many great books and I can't wait to share more with you. I started off the year by sharing one of my favorite books with you, The Castle in the Attic. I like this book because it teaches the reader so many lessons. Through William's adventures you learn about bravery, love and friendship. What's your favorite book and why?
