Fantasy

 

Title: Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone 

Genre: Fantasy

Author: J.K. Rowling

Age Group: 10-Up

Teacher Evaluation: As a teacher any Harry Potter books are very challenging but also can be good to read if you want a really good fantasy book. Not only are there the books but there are also the movies that can help a young reader understand what exactly is happening in the book, being able to have the connection between the book and movie I know always helped me when trying to get a better understanding. I love Harry Potter and have always watched the movies growing up around Christmas time and it was always the best time being able to have that especially with the books being out there is the world as well.

Honorable Mentions: The Chronicles of Narnia and The Tale of Peter Rabbit

We can have the books and movies based in the past to give us an idea of what exactly could've happened back then. "The Boy in the Striped Pajamas" tells the story of Bruno, a young German boy whose father is appointed as the commandant of a concentration camp during World War II, forcing Bruno to move to a de...
