Oooh..I just joined the other day and I can write on this too,
yes?
In junior school I used to love Enid Blyton's Mallory Towers books.
In senior school we read HG Wells "The History of Mr Polly" and Shakespeare's "Henry V for O-Level.
For A-level we read Walter Scott's "Guy Mannering", Jane Austen's "Northanger Abbey" and Shakespeare's "Anthony and Cleopatra".
I remember our English teacher making us read John Wyndham's "The Kracken Wakes" which I hated....yeuch. But he then wowed me by reading Alexander Pope's poem "The Rape of the Lock" so he was forgiven.
I used to read my kids (now aged 17, 21 and 23) stories in silly voices, one to match each character in the tale. Their favourite was Roald Dahl's "The BFG". Even now they embarass me about it.
