Looking for a ready-made booklist of books to recommend to 8-12 year olds? Look no further! The Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC) has created an attractive booklist, complete with annotations, to help kids find the right book. All books were published in 2012 or 2013.
Just another benefit provided to us all by ALSC–if you can afford to join this great group, I highly recommend it.
