Well, I know I read a hell of a lot of books while a little girl but most of those were of the "Babysitter's Club" vein. I would have to say that the very first book that blew my mind was "Sophie's World" by Jostein Gardiner. It was given to me by a friend and took me six months to read but it changed my outlook on religion being the pinnacle of thinking. I bought it a couple of years later and then found a copy in French. I don't understand that version much, but the already gorgeous writing is even better.
I would also say "Anthem" by Ayn Rand. It taught me to think completely outside the box.
