These are a few of the books I've read that I enjoyed, and some of them are great. I haven't put any in the first list that I haven't read at least a little of, but the second list are books recomended to me that I haven't read yet. I'll warn you though, that some of the books have stuff in them that a young child really shouldn't read just yet. Just look at the rating first before you give it to children.
