TARGET: Literature suggestions for high-end 4th graders

I've been tapped to run an after-school program for 4th graders recommended by 
their teachers; we'll be looking at literature not usually covered in class.  I'm 
thinking of some classics: short stories by Poe and Conan Doyle, maybe even Huck 
Finn (I think it's so much better than Tom).  Any suggestions, ideas?  I don't want 
to do modern "problem fiction;" I think they'll get exposed enough to that in class 
curriculum.  Is Huck Finn too hard?
