Books for Ages 9-14

At Books2Door, we really care for your children’s development and at the age of 9-14, they are learning about the world around them as they acquire life skills and knowledge about their society surrounding them. It’s critical to develop their communication, logical thinking ability, concentration, self and social awareness. You might be interested in our nonfiction books for this age group, which will support their learning and school curriculum across a range of topics. When it comes to a little down time and branching away from books with illustrations and comics, the 9-14 age group tends to hold a lot more responsibility when it comes to making their own decisions and this definitely applies to their choice in books.

We know that reading is important to children, but when it comes to this age – they’ve probably outgrown some of their current books. The good news is that we've got an extensive range of famous authors, laugh-out-loud titles and genres including TV or Netflix series that are bound to grab their attention! Your child may enjoy reading about characters or settings in a similar age group so you can’t go wrong with shelf favourites from the likes of J.K Rowling, Jacqueline Wilson and Horrible Histories. In books aimed at 9-14 year olds, there will be a significant leap in the wider array and complexity of vocabulary and understanding entering their teenage years. The same applies to plots and narrative which will attract reluctant readers. From stories on magical lands to science-fiction adventures and all-time classics, there is something for everybody and may help children mature beyond their age. Whether it’s kids' books or Adult fiction, we stock an extensive range of literature for you to get your hands on.
