Finding reading material for your teens among today’s choices can be daunting, which is why I’m always thankful to get recommendations from friends who are on the same search for quality books that are exciting as well. These twenty five books come recommended by one of more of my teens.

Here are 16 book series for kids that we have enjoyed over the years. Some of them have been family read alouds, a few we’ve listened to as audiobooks, and of course the children have read (and reread!) many of these on their own… but they’re all on the “favorites” list for our family!

As we have we have spent countless hours reading aloud as a family, we have discovered many treasures. The books listed below are some of those favorites.

After your child is done going through a basic reading program, what’s next? It’s time to move on to practicing with real books! This list contains some of our kids favorite books to “graduate” to.

The love for books starts young! This post contains some of our favorite books for toddlers; perfect for snuggling up before bed. My husband and I could recite most of these with our eyes closed, and we still enjoy them.

Having activities available to keep hands busy during read-aloud time is a “mom hack” that has blessed our household for years! Even my littlest ones will stick around during our longer read-aloud sessions when they have something to do while they listen.

All year long I keep a collection of books tucked away for the month of December. Over the years we’ve amassed a large collection and the children enjoy pulling out a new book from the bag each day. This list shares nine of our favorite Christmas books.
