Peeps answered Friday March 26 2010, 2:38 am: Many books are very, very good reads even if they aren't centered around fantasy so I do hope you keep that in mind. I will list some good books for 7th graders to read and maybe something there will be of interest to you, despite them not being specifically fantasy-oriented (sometimes they can really surprise you with how exciting they end up being):
The Outsiders by S.E. Hinton
Where The Red Fern Grows
Make Lemonade
Dragon Rider, Inkheart and Inkspell by Cornelia Funke
Freak the Mighty by Rodman Philbrick
Chocolate War by Robert Cormier
Loser by Jerry Spinelli
Hatchet by Gary Paulson
Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams
I am a little older than 7th grade but my favorite books are:
1984 by George Orwell
and
Night by Eli Wiesel
People are seem to highly suggest the entire Harry Potter series, Twilight, Eragon, Inkheart, Magyk, Avalon High, Peter and the Star Catchers, the Bartimaeus Trilogy, the Diadem series, Lord of the Ring series, and...
Invincible, Runaways, and Marvel 1602
which are based on superheroes, apparently?
You will see that all of those books are considered fantasy and have grade suggestions on them (like 5th - 9th and such). Scroll through them and see if something catches your eye that is suggested for your grade-range. :) [ Peeps's advice column | Ask Peeps A Question ]
