I would argue that Story of the Amulet, as the book that invented children's time-travel literature, is pretty influential as well. I may be wrong, but I think it's also the first book of any kind where people travel in time by magic as opposed to inventing a time machine? So it really creates a whole genre of time-travel fantasy that extends beyond children's lit, all the way to something like Kindred.
