Book List for Kids: Christmas Gifts for Bookworms

These are books that were very foundational in my growing up, and are books that fall in a category somewhere between an old classic and a modern novel. They are also great to listen to as a family on audiobook, and can spark some really good discussions with your kids about the topics addressed. (If you have younger kids, some topic matters may be sensitive or mature for them to hear.) Sometimes a book’s reading level is low, but the content is so rich, that I feel it is actually written for older children, and then other times, the subject matter is not very complex, but the author’s use of the English language engages the mind of the reader. These are the best books for tweens, or kids somewhere around 9-13 years old. If you are looking for younger children, here are boxed sets of the best books for kids, perfect for Christmas gifts.
