Books for kids looking for something to read.
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. đ( When there are series included on here, only the first book is added, this is the same for all my lists).

This is brilliant! I would recommend The Mysterious Benedict Society by Trenton Lee Stewart & Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow by Jessica Townsend, if they meet your requirements.
Thanks! I got the idea from Middle Grade/ya, and thought it would be good to make one just for kids to be easier to findđ. I'll see if the books fit!
Such a good idea! And placement. I read âkidsâ books. My son hasnât started chapter books yet, but I keep the ones I think heâll enjoy in the future. Itâs a win win. Good book and Iâve already vetted it. lol

I'm glad.đ I hope he likes the books you're saving and becomes a reader someday! đ
this is so cute! id recommend The extremely embarrassing life of lottie brooks and also A place called perfect! They are for the slightly older kids maybe 10-12 but I really enjoyed them when I was younger
Adding âCity Under the Cityâ by Dan Yaccarino. My son is obsessed with it.

It looks pretty coolđ adding it!
Ooh fun!! I recommend adding the Boxcar Children, that was one of my favorites as a kid. (I may or may not still own physical copies of the series...)
