The chimp Paradox had a massive impact on me, and anyone who had issues with emotional reactions should have a read 
I love Remember the titans and coach carter as films as they really hit home on unity and how you can be better than someone thinks you can! |

Thank you so much for this thread, it's helped me rediscover some of my old favourites! So my list is, in no particular order:
Black Beauty - Anna Sewell
Little Women - Louisa May Alcott
One for the Money - Janet Evanovich
Dracula - Bram Stoker
Twelve Days of Christmas - Trisha Astley
Emma - Jane Austen
The Scarlet Pimpernel - Emma Orczy
I am unashamedly cheating with the next 3 because they are a series of books but I couldn't pick a favourite from the series!
Cosy Cafe series - Debbie Johnson
Inspector Faro series - Alanna Knight
Crowner John Mysteries - Bernard Knight
