for Grade School Age Children


We have created a list of books that we think are well-written, intelligent, and enjoyed by parents and children. We have read most of these aloud to our sons - they helped compile this list.

The list is divided into two at present: those books suitable for children aged 9-11 and those for children 12 and up.

These two lists are both hosted at our Amazon store:

If you choose to purchase them from Amazon, we will receive a small percentage of your purchase, but, of course, you can also find these books at your local public library or local bookstore.

For further recommended titles, see Pamela Fenner's Waldorf Student Reading List. She has also written a volume for high school students: Books for the Journey. Both are published by Michaelmas Press. We also list many books suitable for younger ears in our Kindergarten with your Three to Six Year Old and First Grade Syllabus.
