I thought I was the only one.
My favorite was Juliet Dove, Queen of Love and The Magic Tree House series.
I enjoyed reading these to my children when they were younger.

Alice in wonderland will always be a favorite and I own it.
There is a pirates of the carribean series called jack sparrow that is a fun read.
Currently I am reading a warriors variant called survivors based on dogs

I really enjoy the Fablehaven series, I remember this one classic book, I had to read for english class long ago, and I just can't remember the title. What I can recall it was about a teenage boy, who was forced on the run, for the new lord of the land, built a wall on some grazing lands( which were always used freely), and decided to force the peasants to pay to use it. During the adventure of tearing down the wall, the boy's cap is left behind, so he's forced to leave the village, and joins a band of travelling actors. Where he meets a boy named Kit( or Kat) who reveals to be a girl, who like the hero is forced on the run, as her guardian betrothed her to the evil lord, and they later discover that there is an assassination attempt on queen Elizabeth( or was it Victoria?)

There's another book I remember reading, back when I was a kid, it was about this girl who meets this wounded boy, and she hides him in her family's stables. He tells her that he and a friend of his, were soldiers in the war that's currently going on, and were now on the run. The boy was worried about his friend, during their desertion they gotten separated, the girl does her best to hide the boy from not only from the army, but her own family and a friend of her own, and in the end it turned out that the girl's friend was hiding the other deserter all along.

While I was a kid, my favourites were Heidi, the Little House on the Prairie series, the Chronicles of Narnia, the Winnie the Pooh books, and Alice in Wonderland and its sequel.
I later discovered the Anne of Green Gables books and the Hobbit and the Lord of the Rings. Also, but not until I was in grad school, Diana Wynne Jones' Chrestomanci books.
