Bridge to Terabithia

by Katherine Paterson

Ages 10–13 Reading age 10 Novel Set in outdoors and wild places movingthoughtful

Jess and Leslie invent a kingdom in the woods across the creek, reached by a rope, and hold it against the rest of the fifth grade.

A story about children, moving and thoughtful in tone. We would put it with children of 10–13, and at a reading age of about 10 for reading alone.

Worth knowing before you buy

Or let them write their own.

Nothing gets a child reading like a story they invented themselves. Your child plans the characters and the plot, and we write, illustrate and print it as a real book with their name on the cover as the author.
