I suppose it would depend on the age of the brother/sister.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl
A Wrinkle In Time, A Wind In The Door, A Swiftly Tilting Planet, Many Waters ... all by Madeleine L'Engle's
Everything C.S. Lewis wrote is good. :)
Any of the Harry Potter franchise
And I can't think of the title of her book at the moment, but Cornelia Funke is decent as well.
If it's a younger reader Hank the Cowdog series by John R. Erickson is always fun. Captain Underpants is always a big hit with the younger ones as well.

-The Mortal instruments sequence is powerful by potential of Cassandra Clare (first e book is city of Bones). The sequence is city delusion. -try finding into authors like Sarah Dessen,Laurie Halse Anderson, or Chris Crutcher, Caroline B. Cooney for brand spanking new books outdoors of a sequence. they're astonishing authors who write truly properly and you'd be able to inspect the various diverse books they have written. My fashionable Dessen is this Lullaby; my fashionable Anderson is communicate and additionally Twisted; my fashionable Crutcher is Downriver; and Cooney is Face on the Milk Carton - Classics like the Outsiders by potential of S.E. Hinton or image novels like Rapunzels Revenge by potential of Shannon and Dean Dale.
