Young readers respond

Book suggestions abound! Several (young-ish) friends and family members have chimed in with their faves:


Inkheart, by Cornelia Funke, was suggested by my bright young friend Katy, age 9.

The Phantom Tollbooth, by Norton Juster, got the thumbs up from my book-loving niece Kimberly, age 11.

Mad Libs. Oh, how I love these fun word lessons cloaked in silly fill-in-the-blank stories.

A Single Shard, by Linda Sue Park, was recommended by dedicated reader/writer Eliza.

Got any more good reads? What are your sons, daughters, nieces, nephews, friends and neighbors reading? What have I missed? Keep those suggestions coming!
