Top TWELVE Books for Tween and Teen Boys (and Girls!)

Many children start their love affair with reading by enjoying picture books, graphic novels, and easy chapter books. Then, after children have gained their confidence and honed their reading skills, they are ready for more advanced stories, characters, and plot lines. Today, I am sharing TWELVE books that were / are some of my boys' favourites.

  1. Hello, my 10 yr old son has read every Wings of Fire book available and has reread several of them because he loves them so much! He's also really liked the Fablehaven and Dragonwatch series:)
