Vanity Fair by William Makepeace Thackeray - Please don't let the 2004 movie version throw you off. (I prefer the 1987 movie version, which is very hard to find). This really is a masterpiece.
The Velveteen Rabbit by Margery Williams - I grew up with the version that was illustrated by Michael Hague. I still think the last picture of the fairy looks like I did when I was a little girl. (Except I had short hair.) This is a sweet story of a well loved toy and what it takes for a toy to be real.
The Voyages of Doctor Dolittle by Hugh Lofting - Wonderful tales of Doctor Dolittle's adventures. What exactly do you do when you can talk to animals?
