Hoots Kid Science
Do you have any book suggestions for young readers?
For Christmas, I give books to all of the kids I know. I like to read the books before giving them, partly because I want to be sure they're appropriate, and partly because I like to be able to talk to them about the books. I've already given books like Ender's Game, Eragon, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, Hoot, Harry Potter - the obvious ones. I'd prefer paperback.
I need suggestions for books for a couple of 11 -14 year old boys, one of whom is into WWII and outdoorsy stuff, and another who likes science fiction. Also, any "best reads" for new readers and un-readers (I have a couple of toddlers and babies on the list)?
11-14 year old boys...
The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan (yes, it's paperback; modern fantasy)
Code Talker by Joseph Bruchac (yes, paperback; WWII)
Everlost by Neal Shusterman (hardback, supernatural adventure)
Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer (hardback, science fiction, (end of the world/survival))
Ender's Shadow by Orson Scott Card (paperback; IF you've successfully given Ender's Game, this book seems fitting as well for science fiction lovers).
Peter and the Starcatchers by Dave Barry and Ridley Pearson (paperback, fantasy)
Here There Be Dragons by James A. Owen (hardback, fantasy)
For toddlers/preschoolers
Dooby Dooby Moo by Doreen Cronin and Betsy Lewin (hardcover)
Click Clack Moo: Cows That Type by Doreen Cronin and Betsy Lewin (paperback)
