The Pathological Readers Holiday Gift Guide: Books for Kiddos Ages 6 - 11



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.
BuyThea Stilton Series + Geronimo Stilton Series

2. The Action Bible



Why: Because it is a comic
BuyThe 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
BuyThe Girls of Many Lands Series

4. The Hobbit by J.R.R. Tolkien



Why: Because they are so funny (the people and the animals :))
BuyThe Hobbit 


5. The Chronicles of Narnia Series by C.S. Lewis




Why: Because they teach us to love one another
BuyThe Chronicles of Narnia Series


I love this girl, and her book recommendations are solid. Hope she has inspired you to buy some books this Christmas, though she assures me there is nothing wrong with toys. :)
