An English Teacher's List of Inspiring Books

I've found all of these books engaging and thoughtful in their own way. It's a mix of children's, young adult, ancient, contemporary, fiction and nonfiction. I've been inspired by so many lists here to widen my choices and now read 100 books a year. I hope you will be inspired to try some of these reads.
