If memory serves this was the last cross party political ticket. Just an interesting historical piece there for you all. I second this book.
1984 is certainly worth a read, if only to make you think.
The last question - Asimov (
link) Stunning and it really makes you think.
The Watchmen - Alan Moore - not a book exactly, nor is it for kids, but it is worth a look in that it makes you really question right and wrong.
Enders Game - Just a good classic sci fi read
Something I thought was interesting was The Divine Trilogy by Dante.
