I loved the Ramona books and most of the other ones by Beverly Cleary 
(The Mouse and the Motorcycle was great).  I also read the Narnia 
books, Charlotte's Web, The Trumpet of the Swan, and Stuart Little by 
E.B. White; the Anne books by L.M. Montgomery; and anything by Roald 
Dahl and Madeleine L'engle.  When I was younger I read Peter Rabbit 
and Babar too, as well as the Berenstein Bears and the usual 
collection of fairy tales. And then when I was about 11, I went into 
this sci-fi craze and read anything I could get my hands on by Isaac 
Asimov and Arthur C. Clarke.  After that I moved on to Michael 
Crichton.  Needless to say, I was a bookworm (and still am, when I 
have the time).
