Recommended Books for Kids In Fourth Grade

Many 4th graders have developed likings for certain genre; be it realistic fiction, humor, fantasy, adventure or mysteries. Some get immersed in pulpy series (i.e. Babysitter’s Club, Nancy Drew, Boxcar, Hardy Boys, Goosebumps, Animorphs, etc.). A liking for these series (that sometimes number in the 100’s!) usually matures into a lifetime love of reading.
