Welcome to a Bonus Day from my 10 Days of The How To’s For Book Clubs. Today’s list includes books I would deem as “children’s classics” as well as books that were beloved by my children that didn’t make it on to my previous lists.

The books on this list range from great read aloud options for young readers, to high school level reading.
