In case you missed it, Lesley Anne and I are doing a gift guide series for the holidays. Our gift guides will mainly stick to book recommendations (since this is a book blog after all) broken up by age group. To sweeten the deal, we've asked a few of our friends to step in and guest post for us as we recognize we aren't the experts on every age group. Today, my sweet niece Maria is recommending books for ages 6 - 11. She is a huge reader and has her own book club that meets twice a month. We are kindred spirits in every sense of the word.
1. The Thea + Geronimo Stilton Series by Thea and Geronimo Stilton
Why: Because they are mysteries and they are all friends
Disclaimer: Maria only recommended the Thea Stilton series but I went ahead and put the link for the Geronimo series as well since it features a male protagonist. Maria has told me she likes both.
Buy: Thea Stilton Series + Geronimo Stilton Series
2. The Action Bible
Why: Because it is a comic
Buy: The Action Bible
3. The Girls of Many Lands Series by Various Authors
Why: Because they tell all about different things and different words from other countries
Buy: The Girls of Many Lands Series
4. The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien
Why: Because they are so funny (the people and the animals :))
Buy: The Hobbit
5. The Chronicles of Narnia Series by C.S. Lewis
Why: Because they teach us to love one another
Buy: The Chronicles of Narnia Series
Awesome! As a lover of literature and an English major, this does my heart good!
