The Royal Diaries: personal journals of real princesses around the world at the age of 13 to 14. Including Elizabeth the 1st, Cleopatra and Marie Antoniette. I also loved Little House in the Prairie books, by Laura Ingalls Wilder.

Kidnapped by Robert Louis Stevenson.
This book is really the perfect book which is why there are a lot of TV and film versions over the years. The most recent TV series was good but the book, as always, is better.
It remains one of the classic coming-of-age stories for children and young adults.
After the death of his father, David Balfour sets out to meet his uncle and claim his inheritance. This adventure takes him through the highlands of Scotland where he embarks upon a long journey back from treachery and deceit. David changes from an uncertain and hesitant youth, to the assured and forthright young man he becomes at the conclusion.
You can read Kidnapped for enjoyment or to enrich the learning experience but this is a must for anyone who wants to learn how to write their children’s book

It was Charlotte the Marmot (which I've never seen since!)... then when I hit about nine, it became anything by Judy Bloom. At about 13, I discovered the Horror genre, and have been a fan ever since!! I started reading very young, and still LOVE to lose myself in a good book. My favourite ever is Swan Song by Robert McCammon, followed (closely) by The Talisman by Peter Straub and Stephen King, and The Stand also by Stephen King. I'll read anything!!!

i remember been sent to bed at 9 o clock religiously, follow by the nightly bellow from my mother downstairs 'lights off in 5 minutes'. by the six minute i would sneak over to the window, wrap myself up in a blanket and started to read by the glow of the solitary orange street lamp outside. constantly listening for footsteps on the stairs. no wonder why I'm half blind and jittery now. that was nearly thirty years ago but i will never forget how much joy i had from reading them books. oh god i getting old I'm in a state of reminiscence
