    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Kooky

    Kooky

    This list of books was one of the most fun to pull together this month! It’s full of “kooky” titles a term I use with the utmost respect. I love to read books that are so far out there, I wonder, “How did the author ever come up with this?”…

    15 Diverse Easy Readers

    kids reading header

    Today I’m sharing easy readers. This is a group of books that I don’t often share about but is so vitally important to creating strong readers. Easy readers are geared toward kids from ages 4-7 (with wiggle room as usual) who are beginning to learn how to read. These books…

    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Journey

    journey

    Taking a journey is one of the specific parts of adventure stories whether it be geographical or personal. I talked about this a little more in the historical fiction post earlier this week. And the idea that while we like adventure stories to be action-packed and page-turning, but sometimes they…

    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Imaginative

    Imaginative

    Imagination is a gift once must have when writing and these authors are full of it. With stories of games, zombies, spies, history brought to life, and an overnight in Ikea, the imagination knows no bounds! I enjoy creating lists such as this one when you pull together books that…

    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Historical Fiction

    historical fiction

    Historical fiction has always been one of my favorite genres. I love learning and with historical fiction the storytelling aspect makes me enjoy it all the more. I often find myself diving into further research about a time period after having read a book set during it. I’ve been really…

    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Girl Characters

    girl characters

    This might look a little similar to a post from last week, just with female characters, rather than male. If you didn’t get a chance to see last week’s post, make sure you stop by for 12 additional adventure titles that you might enjoy. But, I’ll reiterate what I said…

    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Fantasy

    Fantasy

    While dragons got their very own post, you can’t very well believe that I wouldn’t share a whole list of fantasy titles as well. And yes, there are more dragons, but they don’t all have dragons, I promise. While fantasy titles aren’t my go-to books, I still tend to enjoy…

    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Dragons

    Dragons

    There is absolutely no way that I could create 26 book lists about adventures without highlighting dragons in at least one of the lists. And there are plenty more dragon books out there, but I limited myself to twelve and was able to pull from picture books, chapter books, middle…

    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Chapter Books

    chapter books

    Letter “C” is for chapter books! This is probably one of the most misunderstood terms in children’s literature, so let me explain. While most people use this term for any book with chapters in it that is geared toward kids, it’s actually a specific term. Unfortunately, it’s often misused online…

    2024 Blogging A to Z Challenge: Boy Characters

    boy characters header

    It’s day two and time for the letter “B”! And while my title is a little clunky, it’s written that way on purpose. I don’t adhere to the idea that there are “boy” books and “girl” books. Rather, there are books that interest readers. And yes, I know that some…
