Yeah I listed those books in order of importance imo. Rich Dad really gets you to be like "What??? REALLY?!? WTF HAVE I BEEN DOING??" but doesn't offer much in the way of solutions aside from the general rule of thumb: Keep your monthly cash flow in the positive and spend your money on assets not liabilities.
Richest Man in Babylon is also a rule of thumb book. In fact, instead of reading that, you could just adopt the policy that you'll set aside 10% from all you make and pay it to yourself (after you've dealt with the debts, that is), as that's pretty much all the book boils down to, although it's a fun read.
The Robert Allen books are great if you want to go for real estate like myself, if not, just get the Multiple Streams of Income one, it's more about building wealth than building wealth is lol. BW is about building wealth with real estate.
Cash Flow Quadrant is just a book that drives RDPD point home with some added things.
So, it really depends on what you're after.
