Below are some of my favorites - did I leave out yours?
1. Little Women by Louisa May Alcott (Everyone knows Jo is crazy about books and writing.)
2. The Library by Sarah Stewart, pictures by David Small. Elizabeth Brown loves books. A lot. You'll love what she does with them all when she grows up...

3. Matilda by Roald Dahl - she teaches herself to read and by the age of 5 and 1/2, she's read all the children's books in the library...
5. Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen...“Miss Eliza Bennet,” said Miss Bingley, “despises cards. She is a great reader, and has no pleasure in anything else.”
6. Anne of Green Gables by Elizabeth Montgomery. Anne Shirley: "Don't you just love poetry that gives you a crinkly feeling up and down your back?"
7. 84 Charing Cross Road by Helen Hanff, is collection of correspondence, from 1949-1969, between Helene and a book buyer at an antiquarian bookseller in London. It's basically a lovefest for out-of-print books, the bookstore Marks and Co., and British culture.
8. Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. Guy Montag goes from burning books to rescuing them.
