Run, Tim! Run!
Teasing aside, Narnia, Hobbit, Harry Potter, Hardy Boys (Nancy Drew for a girl? Or should we assume any child of a Rafonaut will be awesome enough to like Hardy Boys regardless?), Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, To Kill A Mockingbird when they're a little older ... can't think enough to come up with more at the moment.
EDIT - I guess I answered both of your posts at once by accident. I'm efficient like that.

What books (other than SF-F) do you consider "vital" reading?

Re: they're going to get locked into a library full of books I will allow them to read.

Re: I read under the covers, by torchlight, with a decoy book so they'd not know what I was reading.

I could not work out why it would be a bizarre image.

Precisely. I was wondering how the sheets wouldn't burst into flames. *NM*

I realise I forgot to include Beatrix Potter in my list. The shame.
