You nailed the three authors that immediately came to mind - Ursula K LeGuin, Brian Jacques, and Terry Pratchett. You could also throw in Ender's Game, or Snow Crash (I don't know the age you're aiming for, but it is a good book.) Neuromancer? I dunno - but the list you have is good. :)

Oh my god you're alive!

Ender's Game is good :D I'm not familiar with Snow Crash, I'll have to see if the bookstore has it.
