Some older classics of juvenile fiction that I have enjoyed
(besides all the Fairy Tales of Anderson, Grimm, Perrault, d'Aulnoy, et
al.) and are still fun as an adult.

I also HIGHLY recommend the current "Tomorrow" series by John
Marsden, an Australian writer.

Dates are the original publication dates to the best of my knowledge,
amny have been reprinted at various times.
