Cool books -- recommended books for children and teens
Looking for a good book for a child or teen?
It's a blessing when a child, young or teenage, likes to read. It can, though, be hard to find good books. I've made lists in different categories to help. Each item points to a review of the book.
There are books for young children, books recommended for teens, there are manga and fun books, there are educational books as well. Check out the reviews and you should be able to buy with confidence for your child.
As I find more reviews that I like, I will add them to the lists.
"The more you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go."
Dr Seuss: I Can Read With My Eyes Shut!
"She's strong! And scary...I bet she's single...I'd put money on it.."
Masashi Kishimoto,
A Dubious Offer! Tsunade's Choice
"A little attention however to the nature of the human mind evinces that the entertainments of fiction are useful as well as pleasant"
Thomas Jefferson
"As her first day of school begins, Bella tries to assure herself: I can do this, I lied to myself feebly. No one was going to bite me"
Twilight (The Twilight Saga, Book 1)
Book Reviews, Writers I LIke
My blog on books and authors
For more book reviews, see my blog: Book Reviews, Writers I Like. I mainly review crime and spy fiction but I'll read anything that's well written. Amongst my favourite authors in those genres are Ross Thomas, one of the great stylists, and John Connolly - newer but now firmly established in the crime world with crossover to metaphysical - if you haven't read him yet and you fancy something a bit meatier (and bloodier, be warned) then you're in for a treat. Anf if you want to see how a mother/daughter partnership manages crime thrillers with a computer twist, have a look at a review of PJ Tracy's Dead Run.
