14 Books for Young Readers

Last month, I spent a great deal of time sorting through some books that I have at home. I needed some age-appropriate books for a younger relative, and I knew that I could find some among mine. However, it wasn’t that easy. Although I did find some books that I loved at her age, they were fewer than I expected and I knew there must have been a trillion more books that I had read and loved.

I know that there are a lot of people wondering where to start when buying books for young readers. I hope that my list can give you a start. Some of these books and series even I myself still enjoy. Have fun!

 

1. The Amazing Days of Abby Hayes Series by Anne Mazer

A great series about family and school life, and their ups and downs. ‘Little writers’ would especially like these books. 

 

 

2. Here’s to you, Rachel Robinson by Judy Blume

A story about family, friends, school-life, sibling-issues and trying to perfect it all..or at least keep it together.

 

3. Diary of a Wimpy Kid Series by Jeff Kinney

Even the not-so-occasional readers will enjoy this.
