For better or for worse, as parents, librarians, and teachers, we rely a lot on series to get reluctant readers to keep reading. Heck, even very strong readers love the predictability and familiarity they have with characters and storylines they’ve encountered before. To that end, there are some #2 books coming out in new series this fall and they just might be the perfect recommendation for the kids in your library or classroom (or home):
THE FAMILIARS #2: SECRETS OF THE CROWN by Adam Jay Epstein and Andrew Jacobson
- Check out the book trailer for the first book: THE FAMILIARS
THE MYSTERY OF THE MISSING EVERYTHING by Ben H. Winters
- In its starred review, Publishers Weekly called THE SECRET LIFE OF MS. FINKLEMAN, “funny, fast-paced, and highly original.”
MO WREN, LOST AND FOUND by Tricia Springstubb
- Read the Q&A with Tricia Springstubb for WHAT HAPPENED ON FOX STREET
THE MAGNIFICENT 12: THE TRAP by Michael Grant
- Receiving two starred reviews, Kirkus said that THE MAGNIFICENT 12: THE CALL was “a lighter-than-usual fantasy action-adventure that is sure to win many fans and fly off the shelves.” And don’t forget to check out the outstanding website that includes a section of educators!
