All fiction books that appear in the Tiny Bookshop catalogue! Would sort them by genre as I read along.

Books that were adapted into movies (not tv shows). Let's make this list as long as possible!

Books that ignore the traditional way of telling a story. These books tell their stories in unexpected ways, through letters, transcripts, diaries, documents, text messages, or unconventional layouts.

Orphan Fantasy Fiction™. This list isn't about found family, it's about kids living independently/unsupervised and taking care of themselves.

Books with clocks. I wanted to build a list that centers around clocks, time, and clock makers. Did I mention clocks? PLEASE leave any recommendations because I love this topic and need to find more.

According to the ALA, "The Caldecott Medal was named in honor of nineteenth-century English illustrator Randolph Caldecott. It is awarded annually by the Association for Library Service to Children, a division of the American Library Association, to the artist of the most distinguished American picture book for children."
