Top 5 Book Series for kids ages 10 to 12 years old

This post was last updated on October 13th, 2016 at 02:57 pm

I love a good book, but I love a great series even more. I enjoy going on adventures with the characters, learning more about them as the series progresses, and sometimes when you get to the end of a good book you just don’t want it to stop.

I love that my daughter has that same appreciation for well written characters and stories. She was never into princesses or fairy tales. But, she likes adventure, science fiction and fantasy with a little romance worked in – whatever that means to an 11-year-old. I asked her  to share her top 5 book series for kids ages 10 to 12 year old.
