I'm sorry that the questions isn't clear - what I mean by this is - what book do you think would be an instant classic if it got the recognition it deserved?

Lisa, Bright and Dark which is in the tradition of Go Ask Alice except for Lisa is a less known book that has been around longer. Anything Anne M. Martin, with her Babysitters Club series and Babysitter's Little Siter, she deserves classicness. Arthur C. Clarke's books. Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern series. Terry Brooks works. Anything that is great that I hope they recommend in the future.

Not sure I really understand the question... My favorite little-known book is Faerie Wars by Herbie Brennan. It's a lot like the Artemis Fowl books, but with a more realistic main character.

The Wind on Fire Trilogy by William Nicholson....
I love that trilogy.
"There Eyes Were Watching God" by Zora Neal Hurston is already a classic. That too, is a wonderful book. I love it...but I think it's considered a classic.

ENDURANCE BY ALFRED LANSING.
Probably one of the most hair-raising true adventure stories ever written. It is about the true story of Ernest Shackleton, the polar explorer who with a number of his men got stuck on the ice in Antarctica - in the winter! - and pulled through to survive. Also, all of his men survived as well. Unbelievable small boat journey to a remote and frozen island etc. Best book I have read, ever!
