Hmmm I loved all the Little House books by Laura Ingalls Wilder and Oliver Twist, Flowers in the Attic and other V.C. Andrews books, Ann Rinaldi, as I am a big lover of historical-fiction, pretty much everything across the board genre wise, I was and am an avid reader so as a child I read books way more complex then most children read at my age because I had a very advanced reading comprehension and vocab for my age.

Little Women, Heidi, The Boxcar Children series, all the Borrowers books, The Wind in the Willows, and an old series called Rick Blaine Adventures about the teenage son of a scientist living on a fictional island called Spindrift. He traveled the world with his buddy Scotty solving science based mysteries.

"The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" was the book which first got me obsessed with reading. It was like opening a window into another world. Of course at the time I didn't realise it was full of Christian symbolism but I think the story stands up on its own.
I also loved "The Three Investigators" series by Alfred Hitchcock. V.exciting and much better than the Hardy Boys series.

All the Billy Bunter books. These books are very entertaining, very humorous, and very cleverly written. Now I am an adult, I still want to read a Billy Bunter book. These books are very hard to obtain now-a-days. I often remember lines from these cleverly written books and smile: e.g " There is no doubt about it they have been beaten by the fatest and the most fatuous member of the Grey-friars' school community."
A smile was on Billy Bunter's face, this clever plot came from Bunter's powerful brain."

When I was really little I used to read "A Home for Sandy" about a Cocker Spainel looking for a home. It was the cutest book ever.
There was also one about a bunny named Nicholas, who lived in a hollow tree. It's been 20 years and I can still recite that book from memory.
"Where the Sidewalk Ends" and "A light in the Attic" are awesome, and they are still on my bookshelf.
I could go on and on.
