Shorter books (under 200 pages) that are part of at least one quest. Many are also in the public domain, making them easily accessible when you want to grind for that next badge.

books featured in the cozy video game “tiny bookshop”

Here you’ll find a multitude of children’s books featured in the 1998 film You’ve Got Mail, which, if you’re unfamiliar, heavily features a children’s bookstore called The Shop Around the Corner. Nothing brings me joy quite like children’s literature and 90s nostalgia, so I have painstakingly studied the shelves featured in the film to bring this list to life. I hope that at least one book here unlocks a nostalgic memory for you, or at least conjures a smile of recognition.

This is a list of books for kids who need something to read! It ranges from 6-12 and included in here are all sorts of genres! Recommendations welcome. 😊( When there are series included on here, only the first book is added, this is the same for all my lists).

The books your teacher made you read between the ages of 11-14. They changed the way you saw the world, they made you realize books were more than just goofy or sentimental stories you gobbled up before bedtime, and they stuck with you, all these years later.

Suggestions welcome, especially from non-American readers!!

Note: this list was made by a Millennial, so I'd love to hear from some different generations! What did your teachers assign you?

A list filled with adorable middle grade/children's fiction to take us back way back when. (A good unwind session plus it would be great to share these to get more kids into reading-all suggestions welcome)
