These personal favorites have stood the test of time!
I read every one of Piers Anthony's FORTY ONE Magic of Xanth paperbacks. I would eagerly await the release of every one!
A Spell for Chameleon / Magic of Xanth #1 (Paperback) by Piers Anthony
I've bought and read every Anne book (in paperback) that L.M. Montgomery wrote, and was hooked on the CBC-produced series that came out in the mid-1980s. Hagood Hardy did a great job of scoring the instrumentals, too!
Anne Of Green Gables, Complete 8-Book Box Set (Paperback) by Lucy Maud Montgomery
One of my earliest childhood reads and favorite books – about a horse, of course!
Black Beauty (Sterling Unabridged Classics Series) (Paperback) by Anna Sewell
My dad got me hooked on reading Dune (every book)! The 1982 Dune movie starring Kyle Maclachan was grand and sweeping, but it could not even begin to address all the plots, subplots, and machinations of the books. The Children of Dune miniseries atte...
Dune Saga Books 1-6 Boxed Set: Dune, Dune Messiah, Children of Dune, God Emperor of Dune, Heretics of Dune, and Chapterhouse: Dune (Paperback) by Frank Herbert

Elfquest is no ordinary fantasy comic book series! Wonderful artwork and engaging storylines have me returning to read my EQs from front to back, year after year!
ElfQuest: The Original Quest: Book 1--Fire and Flight (Hardcover) by Wendy & Richard Pini
The adventures of Cutter's tribe and new family continue!
ElfQuest: The Original Quest: Book 2--Forbidden Grove (Hardcover) by Wendy & Richard Pini
On his quest to find more races of elves, Cutter makes some startling discoveries about his kind – and the humans.
ElfQuest: The Original Quest: Book 3--Wolf Blood Caged (Hardcover) by Wendy & Richard Pini
The culmination of Cutter's first quest comes at the cost of some great sacrifices by all parties.
ElfQuest: The Original Quest: Book 4--The First War (Hardcover) by Wendy & Richard Pini
I loved reading every one of Terry Brooks' Magic Kingdom of Landover series. My favorite character was Abernathy the talking dog and court scribe!
Magic Kingdom for Sale - Sold! / Magic Kingdom of Landover Series #1 (Paperback) by Terry Brooks
Piers Anthony's Incarnations of Immortality offered an interesting take on the Four Horsemen of Biblical lore, told from the viewpoint of each of the horsemen.
On a Pale Horse / Incarnations of Immortality #1 (Paperback) by Piers Anthony

Is it a surprise that another favorite book of mine happens to involve an animal? The inspirational and heartbreakingly too-short story of an extraordinary filly who captured hearts with her beauty and blazing speed on the racetrack.
Ruffian: Burning from the Start (Paperback) by Jane Schwartz
I've read all 20 of them; I even watched the movie starring Kelly Reno. The Black Stallion books were the reason why I started drawing horses (and kept drawing them for many years!)
The Black Stallion Adventures (4-Box Set) (Paperback) by Walter Farley
I was hooked on Card's Ender quadrilogy, well before the movie with Harrison Ford was released in theatres.
The Ender Saga #1 (5-Book Box Set): Ender's Game, Speaker for the Dead, Xenocide, Children of the Mind, Ender in Exile (Paperback)
When the book you read draws you into its pages, your imagination may be the hero of the plot! I loved the first movie (even though it deviated somewhat from the book) and the theme music.
The Neverending Story (Paperback) by Michael Ende
One of my absolute favorites. I've read my paperback until the pages look a little, well, dog-eared.
Where the Red Fern Grows (Paperback) by Wilson Rawls
