Johnny Cash's autobiography, Cash. The part where he explains how his brother died when he was a little boy and what his brother meant to him. You feel the pain Johnny struggled with, even as an old man, at losing his brother... especially in such a horrific way. His words and the emotions conveyed really got me. Awesome book if you've never read it.

Would of had to have read a book in order to have cried from reading one but I did cry from watching Brian's Song.

This and then I made a further mistake by reading Bridge to Terabithia right afterwards. Both great books though.

I think I cried reading Charlotte’s Web. Next was The Outsiders.

Charlotte’s Web
quote:

She never moved again. Next day, as the Ferris wheel was being taken apart and the race horses were being loaded into vans and the entertainers were packing up their belongings and driving away in their trailers, Charlotte died. The Fair Grounds were soon forlorn. The infield was littered with bottles and trash. Nobody, of the hundreds of people what had visited the Fair, knew that a grey spider had played the most important part of all. No one was with her when she died.
