Getting your kids to read--a perpetual battle, right? Your goal, then, is to always find the next excellent ebook in a genre they will love to read. And, what is better than finding ebooks for them that they can read on their electronic devices, such as their phones, Kindles or Nooks? Authors in our Children's and Middle Grade genre want to help you with your kids, and they want to help you with your budget, too. They will always offer their ebooks to you for free or discounted.
Definition of the "Children's and Middle Grade Genre": Children who are reading these ebooks are still at the stage of their life where they are focused inward. They are figuring themselves out (a process that shouldn't stop just because we grow older), and so they focus what they want to read on that stage of their lives. While characters in the Children's and Middle Grade genre grow during the stories, the growth is internal by nature. Ebooks in this genre typically focus on friendship, as children are working out what it makes to be a responsible friend to others, and what they look for in friends themselves.
Some bestselling ebooks in the Children's and Middle Grade genre are Katherine Applegate (The One and Only Ivan), R.J. Palacio (Wonder), Jacqueline Woodson (Brown Girl Dreaming), and Sharon Draper (Out of My Mind).

Fire Tests the Purity of Silver and Gold, but the Lord Tests the Heart.
Journee, a mouse princess and daughter of the Great Mouse-King, has a rebellious streak. When she and her companions, Abisai, Toby, Ethan, and Reijo, go on a midnight foray against her father’s wishes, they find trouble. Or do they? Their magical encounter deep within the enchanted Zoe-Chai orchard might be just what the kingdom needs to thwart a perilous threat of an alien bat army seeking the power of the Zoe-Chai tree. So now even though the kingdom has never known true war, the time has come for all its animals, great and small, to defend the Zoe-Chai tree, while Journee and her faithful companions must travel north to retrieve a magic elven staff, forged long ago to protect The Tree forever. Once with the elves, a surprise twist of fate awaits Journee, forcing her to face a zealous queen who looks much like herself. Who is she, really?
This adventure is a race against time. Can Journee and her friends find the staff before all is lost to a battle between good and evil—a battle of hearts, wits, and minds? Who will win in the end? Can love triumph over ambition? Only one thing is certain: Journee must choose her destiny on her own.

What Will You See When You Look into The Pond of Reflection?
Content in her father’s wise kingdom, Princess Journee loves life but has one nagging question: Who is she? Yes, she is a mouse and a princess, but who is she really? With her adventurous spirit and her father’s mighty steed to protect her, she goes on a quest to find herself.
The adventure takes an interesting turn when she befriends a toad and an owl who tell her about a legendary Pond of Reflection known to reveal one's true identity. But first they must find it, if indeed it exists. Their friendship and appreciation for each other grow as they encounter difficulties along the way, and strange happenings in the ancient Whoami Forest.
This adventure story is inspired by the Biblical Proverb 27:19 (NIV) and communicates the moral that identity and self-worth spring from heart and character (inside-out), thus sincere friendship can happen regardless of how different outward appearance may be (outside-in).

Has a child ever asked you how to pray or what to pray about?
Pray! What Do I Say? helps answer those questions. If you are talking to God, you are praying, and praying is one of the most important things we can do. The Bible tells us God hears our prayers and responds to our needs. There are many parts to prayer, but most importantly, we want our children to understand that their prayers are unique to them. Prayer is simply a conversation with our Heavenly Father.
Pray! What Do I Say? looks at prayer in more depth while using kid-friendly language to explain the purpose and potential of prayer. These devotionals are designed for children, offering age-appropriate content and relevant reflection activities.
Dive into the daily devotionals with your child or someone you love. Join the conversations as we teach our children the importance of this spiritual discipline and how prayer can be part of their everyday lives. Devotionals include discussion points, journaling opportunities, and prayer prompts. Jesus modeled prayer for us in the New Testament, and this book begins with His example, The Lord’s Prayer.

In The Claustrophobic Gopher, developers threaten to destroy the beloved forest, and it's up to GJ to face his fears and take action. Packed with surprising twists and delightful friendships, this engaging children's book will keep young readers eagerly flipping the pages.

Discover the power of courage, resilience, and self-discovery in this heartwarming must-read that's sure to captivate young minds.
An excerpt from The Claustrophobic Gopher:
“Hurry, hurry, GJ, we’re not safe until we’re underground.”
“But Mommy.”
“Please realize how dangerous it is for gophers. Bigger animals want to eat us, and the mean gardener sets traps to catch us.”
“But Mommy.”
“Here, now quickly, down our gopher hole.”
“But, Mommy, our home is so dark and tight. Why can’t I stay outside? I want to breathe the fresh air and feel the warmth of the sun!”
“No more buts unless it is your little butt in front of me running down the hole. Now!”
Once safely inside, Mommy plugs the hole, and they are safe. She loves her little tunnel home. It is right below a vegetable garden and, in fact, some of the vegetables actually grow down into their front tunnel. Often as Mommy or GJ crawl through the tunnel, they take a bite of a carrot, a beet or potato. They call it ‘tuber eats.’
A wonderful adventure that everyone from middle graders to adults will enjoy!
Enter a world of Magic and Adventure full of remarkable creatures and breathtaking beauty. But there is danger, too. Can Jack and his friends defeat the forces of darkness and prevent the return of the Tyrant King?
“A darkness is creeping into the Faewald. Trolls, ogres, and goblins have descended from the high passes of the Dragon’s Teeth Mountains. Drek war parties dare to raid our borders, sometimes in the company of jackalwytes."
Jack Sawyer is a skinny boy, undersized, and as graceful as a giraffe on roller skates. Unnoticed by everyone at Stoneybrook Middle School, except for a trio of bullies and a few fellow misfits, Jack trudges through the school year like it’ a prison sentence.
Jack knows many things, like the names of all the state capitals and how to tell an agate from a plain old rock. But there’s much he doesn’t know. For example, he doesn’t know how to shoot sparks by snapping his fingers or ride a galloping horse through the mud and over fences. And he really doesn’t know how to hurl a spear, wield a sword, or track mythical creatures through a magical forest.
But that all changes when one day he discovers he can somehow levitate a basketball and send it flying around the school gymnasium. That’s when he feels the Quickening, and with it a whole new world opens up for him. To harness his new abilities, Jack must go to Ranger Academy in a magical place called the Midwald where he spends the whole summer concocting potions, racing horses, tracking fierce creatures, and battling monsters.
It will be the summer of a lifetime - if he survives.
