I think everyone must be trying to access ALA's list, because it's loading VERY SLOWLY. :)
Off the top of my head, a few of my all-time favorites include:
My Friend Rabbit (Eric Rohmann) A Sick Day for Amos McGee (Erin Stead) Don't Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus! (Mo Willems) -- honor book
One that I feel has stood the test of time: A Tree is Nice (Marc Simont)
And one that I love which has also stood the test of time is The Snowy Day by Ezra Jack Keats; I remember being surprised when I found out that the au thor wasn't African-American!
