Personalized Book Recommendations for Your Child
Finished a favourite series? Our librarians help children find another book to try.
Why are kids so obsessed with the Dog Man series? I break down the appeal of its silly, over-the-top humor and comic style, and I stand by my philosophy: let them read what they love!
A recommendation for older readers. 'The White Lotus' by Aditi Krishnakumar is a powerful historical fiction about a young widow's journey to independence in 1901. A must-read with strong female characters.
If you grew up loving Malory Towers, the 'Unicorn Academy' series is a perfect magical introduction to chapter books for your 6 to 9-year-old. It's filled with adventure, friendship, and of course, unicorns!
We analyzed our library data to rank David Baddiel's books by popularity! From 'The Parent Agency' to 'Virtually Christmas', see which ones are the most borrowed and discover a new favorite.
Finished the Wimpy Kid series? In part three of my series, I share my personal, librarian-approved recommendations for what to read next. These are some fantastic stand-alone books your child might just love.
For the Wimpy Kid fans, here are some lesser-known but equally hilarious books with quirky illustrations. These series are proven hits with kids who have read and loved the popular diary-style novels.
With over 1000 checkouts in 6 months, Wimpy Kid is a phenomenon! We dug into our data to see what fans of the series read next. Here are the most popular follow-up series.
Looking for a spooky, funny adventure? 'A Home to Haunt' by Sudeshna Ghosh is a fantastic read about a boy who has to find homes for ghosts who love puchkas and cricket. Perfect for readers aged 9 and up.
A recommendation for fans of the legendary Satyajit Ray. This collection of 14 uncanny short stories, originally written in Bengali, is a must-have, complete with illustrations by Ray himself.
I found the perfect book for quiet, introverted children with big imaginations. 'I am Quiet' by Andie Powers is a beautiful story that celebrates the inner world of reserved kids.
About Expert Picks for Your Reader
Wimpy Kid had "over 1000 checkouts in 6 months". We "dug into our data" to find follow-up reads, alongside our librarians' own recommendations.
Our recommendations cover comic-style books after Dog Man, follow-up reads after Wimpy Kid, early chapter books and historical fiction. We also rank some books by borrowing popularity, including David Baddiel's titles.
Library educators consider reading age, reading level and interests. Members can choose books themselves or request a librarian-selected set. "Choice is every reader's right" includes choosing picture books and graphic novels without judgment.
Book suggestions support both library visits and home-delivery memberships.
