A lot of Enid Blyton books are good. She's known for her Famous Five books, but her Magic Farawary Tree and the Wishing Chair series are wonderful, too.

The Spiderwick Chronicles. I read them, and actually started to enjoy them.Of course start at book one, they are short books and could have been made into one larger book, but I think for marketing purposes they were divided.
Mr. Poppers Penguins, Everything on a Waffle ,The tales of Despereaux, No more Dead dogs ( all one kids I know really liked. but I never personally read)

The Hobbit by Tolkien. Prequel to the Lord of the Rings but much simpler adventure story.
