Do you enjoy reading? Here readers of your age from all over the United States recommend (推薦) great books for you to read:

 My favorite book is Don⁹t Die,My love by Lurlene McDaniel. I love all her books,but this was the first one I read and I have to say,it is by far my favorite. It doesn’t end like other books,and I cried while reading.

 I think Nancy Drew is great!Nancy is a de-tective (偵探) who has many wonderful ideas!I love it because it's a book from when my grandma was my age,and I can share the fun with her!

 I strongly recommend Skinny Bones by Barbara Park. It is funny,so please add it on your book list. You don't want to miss out funny stories!

I would suggest Growing Trouble by Barbara Park. It is based on real things that happened to Judy Blume. It is about a girl,Alice,who meets some girls at a new state. They become friends,make a club and meet once .a week. They stop after two weeks because .they all like a boy in their class and put him as number one. I think every girl should read this because it is about our growing up.

 I read a book called Neela ： Victory Song and it was very good. I read it twice!It takes place in India in 1936 and this 12-year-old girl named Neela tries to save her father!It has lots of history in it!I also learned a lot about different cultures!The author's name is Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni.
