Mark Twain's only real children's story. It's one that is not going on my best-of list.

I had read this in middle school and didn't love it then. More recently, I read it to my daughter, and we enjoyed it a lot. It's not a life-changing book for me or anything, but it was funny and kind-hearted if a little moralistic.
