Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman.

If ever I’m struggling with something I pick it up and open to a random leaf and just read until I feel better.

I also really like the 3 5s kit that makes one of the most famous integrated circuits, a 555 timer, from truly discrete components:

An 8 bit computer from scratch using ~discrete components. (Or at least simple ICs)

Comes with excellent companion videos from a superb educator: Ben Eater.
