Middle Grade

Middle grade books are written for children between the ages of 8 and 12. Where as picture books, early readers, and chapter books, are aimed at younger children, these books often have coming of age themes. Protagonists are usually around 10-12 years old. Although middle grade books may have more serious themes, they typically avoid profanity, sexual activity beyond kissing, and realistic violence making even serious books appropriate for more sensitive readers.

The Storybook Lady

Once upon a time, as The Storybook Lady I was a professional storyteller, bringing children's books and folktales to life. Now decades later I am a book blogger. As the title implies, my favorite genre is children's literature. But I am a voracious reader and I review a variety of genres. Come back often to see the next chapter!
