'A Wrinkle in Time', 'A Wind in the Door' and 'A Swiftly Tilting Planet' are books that I would highly recommend!. They are a series by Madeleine L'Engle!. Very good books!. I would also recommend 'The Chronicles of Narnia' by C!.S!. Lewis if you haven't already read them!. 'The Hobbit' by J!.R!.R!. Tolkien is a must!. I read that when I was 8!. And, of course, 'The Lord of the Rings' by J!.R!.R!. Tolkien!. I read those when I was 9-10!. Another great book for 10-11's would be 'The Red Keep' by Allen French!. I really like that book!. Edgar Allen Poe is good if you want something macabre!. Well, that's what I got!. I hope you find something you like! :)

Edit: also, the old Nancy Drew series by Carolyn Keene is awesome!. I just love those books!. They're really easy to read so it takes about a day to read one, but they're so much fun!. =DWww@QuestionHome@Com
