❓ Frequently Asked Questions
What books are best for reluctant readers?
Graphic novels (Dog Man, Amulet, Baby-Sitters Club graphic novels), joke books, books about their interests (sports, animals, gaming), and series with cliffhanger endings that make them want the next book.
How many books should I give as a gift?
One carefully chosen book that matches their interests is better than five random ones. If giving a set, choose a series so they have motivation to read through all of them (Magic Tree House, Diary of a Wimpy Kid).
