These book gift guides are created by our children’s literature expert, Maria Salvadore, who also writes the Page by Page blog. The guides feature books so engaging that your child, grandchild, niece, nephew, or student will delight in them over and over again.

Each book was chosen based on age, reading level, topic, writing quality, illustrations, and overall excellence. We make a special effort to highlight newly published books and exceptional audio books. Also included are great books for sharing, talking over, and thinking about with an adult.

For the holidays, for birthdays, or just for fun, give books as gifts and watch kids read!
