I like most books better than their movies because so much is cut out for time sake in a movie.

The Power Of One- I read it as a child and then saw the movie a few years back and realised I knew the ending- even though I probably didnt understand it completely as achild. Then I read it again after high school. Similar also was To Kill a Mocking Bird.

I just read the summary of The Power of One on Wikipedia. It's definitely a book that I want to read. It looks like the kind of book that really makes you think long and hard. I would imagine if you read it too young it would be hard to decipher. Seems like a real War & Peace kind of book.

Velocity by Dean Koontz. That book left me scared out of my mind. When I started it it was night time and I was sitting next a window with the blinds opened. When I finally looked up I saw that it was pitch black outside, there was a big tree just by that window and I was afraid a psychopath was standing right there. And that night every dark corners in my home scared me. I was even scared for the first time of what was in my closet and under my bed, I was even scared of what was inside my drawers.

It would have to be The Hobbit. It was printed in green. That's why I picked it up at the library many, many moons ago.
