Somehow, although the words are tantamount in old classics, it matters to
me what illustrations I am looking at too.  I like to reread:

Stevenson's Treasure Island with the N. C. Wyeth illustrations;
Alice's Adventures in Wonderland with the Tenniel pictures;
Winnie the Pooh with the original Shepherd drawings;
and
Howard Pyle's Merry Adventures of Robin Hood (though I found when I read
this to some fifth graders, they didn't care for Pyle's authentic drawings
of English outlaws in medieval garb ---- they preferred to think of Robin
Hood as a Disney fox! Oooo-la).

Also David Copperfield and The Hobbit.

I also continue to reread, as others have mentioned: Secret Gardenand The
Five Children and It.
