Well off the top of my head...
In fourth grade i read a book called "40 Acres and Maybe A Mule", lol that book made me cry...
Where The Red Fern Grows
Crime And Punishment
I read "The Prince" and although i had to look up 90% of the words in a dictionary, it was good.
The Autobiography of Malcolm X as told to Alex Haley was also very good i learned ALOT.
Of course the Da Vinci Code.
Oh and of course...The Cat In The Hat
Ummm i'm gonna have to add some more later....

Man I've read never die alone, that shit is BIG, really gritty I could just envision being there; i aint even brought myself to watch the film adaptation, cause i kno dmx hasnt done it justice.
And Iceberg Slim, was a "real" author too i've nearly just finished reading pimp.
I swear the way them books are written, is probo in some books cases more effective that the metaphorical methods used by other authors.
