Can you reccomend a good childrens book?

Last summer I read Charlottes Web to my children on a camping trip and they absolutely loved it. I am looking for advice on another childrens book that you think they would equall enjoy. My children are 8 and 6 year old boys. Thanks.

You can't go wrong with a kid-tested classic! Try one of these:
The Boxcar Children by Gertrude Chandler Warner (one of the originals, not the modern)
Stuart Little by E.B. White (who wrote Charlotte's Web)
any of the Freddy the Pig books by Brooks (funny and sweet; Freddy has a cast of buddies and they have adventures; Freddy the Detective was a good one but really, you can't go wrong with any of them)
I like Dick King Smith, who wrote Babe and other animal books but he's not to everyone's taste

Camping makes me think of these titles:
My Side of the Mountain by Jean Craighead George
Where the Red Fern Grows by Rawls
Old Yeller by Gipson (be ready to sniffle if not bawl)
Incredible Journey by Sheila Burnside (much better than the movies)
