I'm also of the belief that if a child wants to play with a certain toy, than it should be their turn with it until they put it down and are finished with it. I don't think it's fair for a child to have to share simply because someone else wants a turn, kids need to learn to wait their turn too.
HOWEVER, what the OP is describing definitely is hoarding and over the top. She needs to learn to compromise a little. I would have a good chat with her first thing in the morning that she can put some toys in her backpack if she wants but that later you want to see her share some of them. Let her decide which ones she wants to share, if she doesn't want to share at all, than you take ALL the toys away as well as the backpack until she is ready to compromise.
