Whoa, there, Guardian.co.uk. Now, before I get all judge-y, is your "Ten of the Best" list of heroes in children's literature meant to be a guide to ten awesome characters, or is it meant to be a top ten list? Because if it's the first--two thumbs up! But if it's the second, we seriously need to talk. No Max from Where the Wild Things Are? No Princess Mia from The Princess Diaries? No Artemis Fowl, no Yotsuba, no Harriet the Spy? Are y'all nuts?
