Happy Hollisters by Jerry West (Any in Series)

If your youngest child is finishing K/G1: Happy Hollisters by Jerry West (any in series) “What a sweet and fun children’s series about the Hollister family. Their motto as I figured out on my own is this: A family that plays together, stays together. This is a mystery series put out by the Stratemeyer Syndicate, the same group that released mystery books for older kids like Nancy Drew, The Hardy Boys, Tom Swift, Rover Boys, etc.” If your youngest child is finishing G2: Tuesdays at the Castle by Jessica Day George (any in series) "What a wonderful book! So imaginative--I love this world. And I love the relationship among the family members and with the Castle. A magic castle that responds to those who dwell within it -- what a terrific idea for a book. I'm now planning to work my way through everything Jessica Day George has written. Tip for parents who are looking for books for their children: this is exciting, suspenseful, and high stakes without ever really feeling scary.” If your youngest child is finishing G3: The Vanderbeekers by Karina Yan Glaser (any in series) We first met the Vanderbeekers two years ago when the original novel was our summer read aloud. Fortunately for us, we didn’t have to say goodbye to this lovable family. The author has since released three more novels about a relatable family and their adventures in and near their home in Harlem. If your youngest child is finishing G4: The Penderwicks by Jeanne Birdsall (any in series) This is a series about another lovable family that many Live Oak children will relate to. They’re precocious and bright and Jeanne Birdsall is a pro at holding the attention of many ages. If your youngest child is finishing G5/G6: Beyond the Bright Sea by Lauren Wolk Reading this novel feels like watching a skilled painter paint a masterpiece. Full of beautiful, precise language, this is a story for Live Oak children who love description “'Harper Lee has a worthy successor. Wolk is a big new talent' - The Times Google Books: “Crow has lived her whole life on a tiny, starkly beautiful island. Her only companions are Osh, the man who rescued her from a washed-up skiff as a baby and raised her, and Miss Maggie, their neighbour across the sandbar. But it is only when a mysterious fire appears across the water that an unspoken question of her own history forms in Crow's heart, and an unstoppable chain of events is triggered. Crow sets out to find her lost identity - and, ultimately, to learn what it means to be a family. Vivid and heartfelt, Beyond the Bright Sea is a gorgeously crafted, gripping tale of buried treasure and belonging.” And if your family just wants a sweet book about perseverance and fortitude for this season: JK and K G1 - G6 Goodreads: “In 2016, Dion Leonard, a seasoned ultramarathon runner, unexpectedly stumbled across a little stray dog while competing in a grueling 155 mile race across the Gobi Desert. The lovable pup, who earned the name ‘Gobi’, proved that what she lacked in size, she more than made up for in heart, as she went step for step with Dion over the treacherous Tian Shan Mountains, managing to keep pace with him for nearly 80 miles. Finding Gobi is the ultimate story of hope, of resilience and of friendship…” .
