This is the list of books I read over and over and never ever get bored…and all these books were introduced to me by Peddi 
1. Adventures of Tom Sawyer – Mark Twain
This’s a 125 year old release….I think I’ve read it for the first time when I was around 10-11 yrs…Fell in love with Tom instantaneously
This story is all about a 12 year old mischievous boy Tom, living in a
village called St.Petersburgh near river Mississippi in USA with his
aunt Polly and cousin brother Sid…He’s so smart and active…his puppy
love with Rebecca Thatcher, their break up, the re-union, getting lost
in a cave later 
…his adventures with his friends Joe Harper and Huckleberry Fin, how
they escape to an island to become pirates and then return home
surprising everyone, the treasure hunt by him and Huck…and the following
incidents…..penned down in the most simple and easy to read
language….all in all, a 200% entertainer…
2. Chuk and Gek – A. Gaidar
This is a story about two twin boys Chuk and Gek living in Moscow with their mother…Their father works for the army somewhere in the Siberian jungle…he invites his family to join him during the holidays, and the rest of the story is about their (Chuk-Gek-Mom) journey thru snow mountains n forests to meet their dad…I once upon a time was so crazy about these two characters, that I wanted to name my future kids Chuk-Gek (two boys); Chuk-Chukki (a girl and a boy); Chukku-Chukki (two girls)
3. Seryosha – Telugu Transalation
This story is about a 6 year old boy, Seryosha living with his mother, step-father, aunt and uncle in Russia….When initially his step-dad enters into their lives, this lil boy feels so insecured and this increases multi-fold when his mom gives birth to his step-brother…and rest of the story is all about how his step-dad wins over Seryosha’s love n confidence….
4. Little girl at the Window - Tetsuko Kuroyanaagi
This novel is about a lil girl Totto Chan…a hyper-active n mischievous girl…She recollects her elementary education, particularly at an experimental school run in unused train compartments by Mr Kobayashi in Japan before World War – II…the school was destroyed in US bombing…most of the story revolves around Children’s psychology and innovative/novel concepts of teaching.
5. Koolina Godalu – Ranganaayakamma
This is the first telugu novel I read….during my 5th std summer holidays I’d been to Usha attamma’s mom’s place in Krishna Dt…borrowed this book from the local library…This story is about a young boy Madhu who loses his parents when he’s just 7…he stays at his maternal uncles’ home with his elder brother Sooryam and lil sister Suseela, and the rest of the story is about their plight in a joint family, how their ammamma supports them whilst their aunts ill-treat…at the end of the story all the three kids settle down happily….
