Yeah, I loved Watership Down, nearly shit me pants though. Very frightening in parts.
Loved The Diddakoi - Rumer Godden.
Traveller in Time - Alison Uttley.
Charlottes Web - an all time weepy.

Ooh Mallory Towers. When they did a pantomime in the fifth, and Alicia played the Demon King and Moira was stuckup and someone was sending poison pen letters which were terribly upsetting, and it turned out to be June, Moira's wayward and difficult younger sister.

No, don't really remember it.
