108 classic children's books · free in PDF & EPUB

First books, kept exactly as you remember them — and exactly as their authors wrote them. Every children's classic on this shelf is public domain and free in PDF or EPUB, ready for bedtime, road trips, or reading aloud in character voices.

Winnie-the-Pooh and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland need no introduction; The Wonderful Wizard of Oz opens a fourteen-book road. And Grimms' Fairy Tales is the original edition — darker, stranger, and better than the cartoons.
