[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Insignificant Events in the Life of a Cactus The Wednesday Wars The Incredible Journey of Coyote Sunrise The War That Saved My Life Limoncello library series The Midnight Children[/quote] The Wednesday Wars (and even moreso the sequels) are at an accessible reading level for an advanced 9 year old, but that would be some [i]heavy[/i] topics. Late elementary and even middle school are better for dealing with addiction in the family, deaths of best friends, abuse by parents, and stuff like that.[/quote] Middle grade authors write about heavy topics in age appropriate ways. Plenty of kids in elementary school are dealing with serious issues in their own lives and middle grade books are a good way to help them realize they aren't alone. I was a 4th grade teacher for many years and all of these books were readily available in the classroom library. [/quote]
