[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^ this list, along with many on the previous long list, were mostly written before 1990. Go ask a librarian. Yes of course you want your child to read classics or the things you grew up on, but they deserve to read literature that has currency now, too. Writing for children has gotten a lot better since the 1990s, in my opinion. [/quote] +1. I'm the very first PP and it's why I gave a bunch of more modern suggestions. I'll add that any of the Kate DiCamillo's geared towards older kids, especially if OP's daughter liked Mercy the Pig and others of her books for early readers. Classics are great, but my voracious reader dives into more modern books. [/quote]
