⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I finished the last book in this series today. The Unwanteds was such a fun wild ride that I was sad it came to an end. If you haven't read this series but love; magic, sea adventures, dragons, battles of good v evil, etc. then this is the book for you! (I am glad Lisa McMann has started a companion series about the younger sisters 👯 so the story can continue) #SomethingToLookForwardTo #Unwanteds #BookNerd 📚💙

This year my 6th grader came home with lots of books for his TBR thanks to booktalks done in English.

#theassassinsblade is just the latest suggestion from his classmates. So I also picked up #throneofglass for him, too.

Are there guidelines you use for what your kids read? What guidelines did your parents use for you?

Figuring @Litsy out, and enjoying it so far!

Johanna414 I don't really have to worry about this as a parent yet, but as a middle high school librarian, I find that kids do a pretty good job of self-censoring as far as difficulty and maturity level. If something is beyond what they are ready for, they usually abandon it for something more appropriate. My parents never limited what I was allowed to read, and it worked well for me. I try to have the same philosophy with my students. 7y
VanChocStrawberry @Johanna414 that's my philosophy too. My parents weirdly limited what I read (no Stephen king, but lots of romance??) and I still read the stuff that was off limits. Ha! My son is really good at self regulating already. Plus, doesn't it seem wrong to curb a kid's enthusiasm for reading? 7y
Johanna414 @VanChocStrawberry that's exactly how I feel! If you start limiting what they are allowed to read, I t just stifles their growth and discourages them 7y
