Our books for 12 year olds include fiction across various genres and non-fiction titles, appealing to history buffs, children into the natural world or keen scientists in the making. We have books to suit all readers interests.

Many of our fiction books are about characters similar to their own ages or a little older who are great role models for older kids and good conversation starters. Our books range from 40 – 400 + pages, perfect for keen readers.

We’ve got graphic novels to engage with tweens who are more visually orientated or for the more mature readers, there are books with more thought-provoking content. Read them if you dare!

Plus, there’s a swag of puzzles books – a great way for kids to relax and unwind, especially in stressful times – and get them off their computer screens. Now that’s a good thing!
