Here are all our reads for the 5-10s age group.
We hope you love them as much as we do and they become a firm fav on your shelf!
We've tried our hardest to select books which are part of a series - cos, while it's great to have a favourite, it's also great to read something else once in a while too! (Look for the star)
If you don't have a copy of any of these yet, then click the 10ofthose.com link, get hunting for a second hand copy or get an audiobook version!

Luke loves nothing better than to kick a ball around the yard. But he wishes he knew more about what was happening … over the fence.
A classic work of literature, adapted for children and beautifully illustrated. Perceiving the need for a simpler version of a timeless classic, Helen Taylor faithfully adapted John Bunyan’s allegory of the Christian life, The Pilgrim’s Progress, for young readers—hoping to bring its treasury of wisdom nearer to children’s hearts and minds. That version has sold over 800,000 copies! It preserves the original plotlines of Bunyan’s classic while telling the story of Little Christian and Christiana in a way that kids can understand.
Heather and Picket are extraordinary rabbits with ordinary lives until calamitous events overtake them, spilling them into a cauldron of misadventures. They discover that their own story is bound up in the tumult threatening to overwhelm the wider world.
Kings fall and kingdoms totter. Tyrants ascend and terrors threaten. Betrayal beckons, and loyalty is a broken road with peril around every bend.
Where will Heather and Picket land? How will they make their stand?
