I'm not much of a reader, but two books that I revisit all the time are Ender's Game, and To Kill a Mockingbird. Both are stories about children whose youth was changed dramatically by the forces of society, and I think every child should read them in order to better udnerstand the forces around them.

Summer Sisters by Judy Blume. I think I have read it 7 times now.

Kind of cliche, but as a Harry Potter fan I reread the series quite a lot, whether as a bit of light reading during a meal or a whole reread from beginning to end of one the books. :) (That said, I often ignore poor Philosopher's Stone and Order of the Phoenix, I don't like them as much as the others.) Also, Night Watch (Discworld) by Terry Pratchett. And The Exiles by Hilary McKay. (And the sequels!) I wonder why.
