Hamster Princess: I love the fearless attitude and atypical rodent princess in this hilarious series. My daughter loves the large text, frequent illustrations, and the entertaining plots.
Fairy Animals: The mystical inhabitants of Misty Wood will mesmerise young readers. Choose from an array of animals to start exploring this fantasy setting. Each book has short chapters that keep kids wanting to read more. These books can be enjoyed in any order, each featuring a different main character.
Junie B. Jones: Kids young and old can empathize with Junie B. Jones and her escapades. Whether you read it out loud to kids just starting primary school, or your older child wants a chapter book they can enjoy on their own, everyone will be amused by the antics and attitude of Junie.
Magic Tree House: Each of these plentiful adventure books featuring Jack and Annie takes kids on a trip through real world topics, from history to environmental issues. They do a great job combining the mystery of magic with a factual approach so kids learn lots of new information on any given topic.
The Bad Guys: These graphic novels provide a quick but entertaining read for any kids just switching from picture to chapter books. The shark, piranha, wolf, and snake foursome work to do good deeds and change everyone’s perspective about their predatory habits.
Henry and Mudge: All the books in this series follow Henry and his lovably oversized pet dog, Mudge. From solving mysteries to exploring traditions, Henry and Mudge offer large easy to read text and black and white illustrations. Kids can enjoy the series chronologically or in any order, or even just pick and choose topics that appeal to them.
