Last week’s bestselling children’s books include some wonderful middle fiction reads for ages 8-12. Unleashed is the second adventure of Dog Man (from the creator of Captain Underpants). Danger Ahead is the sixth adventure of tween detective Friday Barnes. The Midnight Gang is a heartwarming and funny tale of friendship.
And for slightly younger readers – Hotdog is the first book in a goofy new series from Anh Do, with illustrations by Dan McGuiness (for ages 5-9).
In non-fiction, both Kaz Cooke’s guide to surviving the tween years and the young readers’ edition of Saroo Brierley’s memoir are continuing to prove popular.
Finally, calling all fans of Veronica Roth… Carve the Mark is her first book in a two-part sci-fi/fantasy series which looks set to be just as thrilling as her bestselling Divergent trilogy.
