What books would make great anime. (manga not included)

There are several Alice stories: Alice in Wonderland, Alice in Cyberland, and even Alice SOS. I believe there are serveral others based on the Alice principal idea but somehow get lost in the translation.

That was not the book. They used two characters from the book, and based it loosely off what happened in the book, but that's it. The book was completely different.

Yeah, Ghibli really messed up on that one. Ursula LeGuin was reportedly quite unhappy about it.

Alice in S3xland anyone?
cheezewhiz:
You know what I haven't seen is someone recommend a horror genre. I could see myself watching a Salem's Lot, The Stand, or IT by Steven King. But only if they make the endings better than the current stories endings,King writes terrible endings for his stories. AHHH better yet the Wasteland series would be fantastic.
Mcgreag:
William Gibson - Sprawl Trilogy (Neuromancer, Count Zero, Mona Lisa Overdrive).
Astrid Lindgren - Most of her book would make good ghibli movies, Miyazaki wanted to do one of them back before he started Ghibli but couldn't get he rights.
