My Mom taught literature so we always had the classics around the house. As a kid, I had the entire Goosebumps series and cherished my collection. I then remember Stuart Littlr being a real page turner for me and I read it 2-3 times in one wk. Charlotte's Web, was a favorite as well. I guess in about 5th-6th grade I discovered SE Hinton and fell in love with The Outsiders, That Was Then This Is Now, Tex, etc. I then started getting into war history fiction and read about every major conflict the US was involved in. Rifles for Watie, April Morning, etc. Just read The Things They Carried today by Tim O'Brien. Steinbeck was another I really enjoyed when I was younger. The Grapes of Wrath, The Pearl, Of Mice and Men
