I agree with the person who suggested the Diary of Anne Frank. I would also guess that some work of Shakespeare...perhaps Romeo and Juliet?

I heard this one before....if its not the Bible then it must be the Quotations From Chairman Mao Tse-Tung....it sold about 900 million copies.

I'm guessing: How to Win Friends and Influence People or Gone With the Wind.

When I was a child, it was Gone With The Wind. I don't know if that is still true or not.

I know Agatha Christie's collection has outsold the bible, but I don't think it was only one of her books.
