I don't think it was one of my particular favourites but I remember my grandparents having a book called Little Black Sambo when I was very small, which I used to look at when I visited them. It had illustrations that were later seen as controversial - it was a product of the colonial times - and the name of its main character, Sambo, was used as a derogatory or perjorative term, but the story as far as I can remember is pretty good. According to wiki, it has been re-illustrated with its original text intact.
