Some of my favorites:
Heirs of Montana series by Tracie Peterson (all of her books are excellent)
Pride and Prejudice (how did you miss that one, my dear?)
The English Garden series by Lori Wick (well, anything by Lori Wic if you just want plain old feel good fluff)
Kids books-
How do I love you?
Goodnight moon
The Wind in the Willows
Any Golden book
i've read six out of the ten books you recommended and love them all.
i'm with jackie -- don't forget about Pride and Prejudice.
my suggestion: Daddy-Long-Legs by Jean Webster.
I've actually never read any of those books...I guess I have a good reading list now. I'm mostly a non-fiction reader, and 2 of my favorites are Passion and Purity, and Let Me Be A Woman - both by Elisabeth Elliot. For kids, I think Where the Wild Things Are is wonderful (with, I think, a solid moral lesson as well).
Another great missionary bio is "Peace Child," by Don Richardson. Actually, I also really like "God's Smuggler" by Brother Andrew.
