<g> Me and my best friend did this with the "Winnetou" books (do you know those books over there in the US? Cheey, unreal and even fake, but hold that certain "Wild West" romantic.) Hmmm... StarTrek was another favorite of ours, as well as the Three Musketeers. No children's books, though, only stables full of make-believe horses, inspired by those books. Oh, and the new version of the Mission: Impossible series, which was one of the few decent Programmes we had at that time.

Now, please don't try to come after me and put me in the loony bin, but I still do it sometimes. Especially if I'm writing something and have problems with the Dialogue I tend to "act out" the scene.
