Middle Grade Books

SELI's small library collection covers picture books to what is called middle grade. 

What are middle grade books? They are novels or nonfiction books written for young people between the ages of 10 to somewhere in the teens. However, if the topic, such as historical fiction, is of general appeal and educational, people of any age enjoy reading middle grade books. 

In adding to SELI's collection we also pay attention to the cultural content of a book, because all children are best able to understand and become engaged by a book if they recognise themselves in the story. 

Here is a list of recently published middle grade books. Have a look and let me know which you think we should purchase for the SELI collection.
