My Sister Hannah

My sister Hannah is eleven-years-old. She lives in upstate New York and is one of the most precious, intelligent, and inquisitive girls I have ever known. Hannah is extremely creative, thoughtful, sensitive, fun loving, and caring. I love her dearly and cannot wait until she comes to visit this summer. As the oldest sister of four siblings, my advice to my dear Hannah is for her to read the following books during the next couple of years (as should all preteen girls):

1.“Are you there God? It’s me, Margaret.”

2.“The Harry Potter Series” (start with the first 3 and save the later books for when you are older)

3.“Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing”

4.“Wayside Stories”

5.All of the “Fudge” Books by Judy Blume

6.All of the “Ramona” Books by Beverly Clearly

7.“Pippy Longstocking”

8.“Freckle Juice”

9.“The What’s Happening to My Body Book for Girls” (embarrassing but essential)

10.The” Diary of a Wimpy Kid” series

11.All of the “Sweet Valley” books (begin with the elementary school and school series first then move on to the High school series)

12.“The Babysitter’s Club” series

13."Nancy Drew" mystery series-this is an absolute MUST

All of the books should be available at any local library

  1. I read "Are You There God? It's Me, Margret" to her about a year ago. :) Graig was visiting for Thanksgiving the day I read the last chapter aloud to her and upon hearing it he shouted, "Oh my god! How come I have never read this book?!?!" LOL
