100 "Must Reads" for Kids 9 - 14



This summer, National Public Radio asked its listeners to send in titles of their favorite books for kids age 9 – 14. More than 2,000 people responded, sending in hundreds of titles. NPR turned to a panel of experts (award-winning authors & librarians) who whittled the list down to 100 of “the best”. The final list has adventure stories, magic, animal stories, pioneer sagas, science fiction, survival, and more.

The list is way, way too long to post. But you can see the illustrated and annotated reading list here. Or if you’re in a hurry and just want the titles, click on the printable list.
