Re: favorite book?
Four of my favorites are The Jungle Book, Help! I'm Trapped In My Sister's Body, Charlie and The Chocolate Factory, and James and The Giant Peach.

Re: favorite book?
For me, it's Babbit by Sinclair Lewis. It really made me think. It even made me cry at the end, a feat which no book had previously accomplished, or has since.

Re: favorite book?
Set in the present day, Holes by Louis Sachar has what may be the most intricate plot I have ever encountered in any medium. It also has a dark sense of humor. And it's technically a children's book.
As for epic fantasy adventure, it's hard to beat Ursula K. Le Guin's A Wizard of Earthsea. It's got four sequels, but none of them recapture the appeal of the original story. The first, though, is most definitely worth your time. |

Re: favorite book?
well, holes IS pretty much a children's book. the plot is similar to a good law and order episode. which is a good way to get kids to like law and order later in life.
