Interesting reads for preteens

Hey everyone! It’s Netqueen and welcome back to my blog!

Are you too old for kids’ books like Geronimo Stilton but still too young for teenage romances? You’re probably a preteen (a kid between the ages of 10 and 12). Are you looking for something new, besides Harry Potter and Lemony Snickett?

Here are some interesting reads that I personally recommend you try.

 1. Jacqueline Wilson is one of my favourite authors. She writes books for a variety of age groups – books like Katy and the Hetty Feather series for preteens, and books for kids as well. Katy is about a girl who breaks her legs and has to get around in a wheelchair. I thought it was a very heartfelt and moving book. It’s actually my favourite Jacqueline Wilson book!

2. Jen Malone is another great author, who has written books like At your Service and The Sleepover. Her books are mostly realistic fiction, about different kids and their talents. The book You’re Invited, for instance, is about four girls who start a party planning business. It’s full of humour, action and fun, like most of her other books.

3. The Scarlet and Ivy series, written by Sophie Cleverly, is full of mystery and horror. The story is about two girls (twins) and their mysterious school, Rookwood Academy. With evil teachers and missing students, this series is great for a spooky read!

4. The series Everyday Angel by Victoria Schwab is about a guardian angel who has to help three different girls with very different problems so she can earn her angel wings. But as Aria the angel starts to help people, she isn’t sure whether she really wants to leave them once her task is done.

5. Finally, The Lemonade War series by Jacqueline Davies is funny, interesting and unique. It has stories about lemonade-making contests, fourth-grade court trials and kid detectives Jessie and Maxwell. The series is so interesting that you can’t put the books down!
