Every year, a huge number of books for teenagers aged 12-14 years are published from the pens of modern authors. Some of them become bestsellers, and everyone knows about them, but this does not mean that all the others are unworthy of attention. Let's find out which of them can occupy children in their free time.

List of books for teenage children 12-14 years old

It is impossible to know in advance which books for teenagers 12-14 years old will be the best for a particular child. After all, everyone’s tastes are different, so at first parents will have to act at their own discretion, and only when the child experiences the joy of the reading process itself will it be possible to understand what he really likes:

  1. "Miracle". Shock book by Palacio R.J. but at the same time, it is not about bitterness from one’s own inferiority, but about kindness, courage, and true friendship. The boy, who was taught at home by his mother from the first grade, must go to a real school. And everything would be fine if this were an ordinary child, but Augustus has a rare genetic anomaly - his mouth, nose, eyes on his face are located completely differently from other people.
  2. “Your Three Names” by Dina Sabitova It’s better to read with adults, because it reveals the difficult ups and downs of life – the loss of parents, life in an orphanage, the hope of finding a new family. A girl with an unusual triple name will make you think about serious things, grow up morally and look at the world from a different perspective.
  3. "Peak" by Smith Rolond. Books for teenagers 12-14 years old about adventures include this one. The story is about a boy whose parents are climbers, but the teenager is attracted to completely different heights - he conquers a skyscraper, which immediately leads to problems with the police. You can learn about the events that occurred as a result of such a rash act from the book.
  4. “Noskoedy”, author Pavel Shrut. A funny story about certain creatures that can be found in any home. As soon as we leave or go to bed, they become active with their intrigues, love, hatred and friendship.
  5. “The past and thoughts of Dita the dog.” Author Lyudmila Raskina was able to convey the feelings of the dog, and on its behalf write an amazing story of one family. Ryzhusha, her Ma and Pa are the most important dogs in her life. This story is a memoir of warm relationships, devotion to owners and a happy dog’s life.

Fantasy books for children 12-14 years old

All categories of readers, and even more so for teenagers, are interested in science fiction adapted for ages 12-14. These fascinating works help to abstract from the sometimes cruel reality and better develop the child’s imagination.

Books for boys and girls aged 12-14 are suitable for reading by both, and the list of works is simply endless - from historical works to modern surrealism:

If a teenager loves books, then they can be the best holiday. But buying a book for a child who doesn’t read is a risky business, especially when it costs a lot. Therefore, the work should be chosen together.

Ecology of knowledge. Children: I am in 6th grade. We have 30 people in our class, 25 of whom do not read. And in many ways this is the fault of adults. From personal experience, I know that parents give their children (my age) “The Three Musketeers,” books about Indians, Jules Verne, and many other books that they remember from childhood. And they are indignant that children are not interested in this.

I'm in the 6th grade. We have 30 people in our class, 25 of whom do not read. And in many ways this is the fault of adults. From personal experience, I know that parents give their children (my age) “The Three Musketeers,” books about Indians, Jules Verne, and many other books that they remember from childhood.And they are indignant that children are not interested in this.

But these books are unlikely to interest teenagers. Sorry, but they are boring. They can be quite easily put off until tomorrow or for a week, and it doesn’t really matter what happens next. And some are simply given a certain number of pages per day, and the child quickly tries to get rid of them in order to sit down at the computer or watch the TV.

Parents are also sure that modern books are all superficial, disposable and it’s almost a shame to read them. Actually they are wrong. In recent years, many books have appeared that are much more fascinating and at the same time just as valuable from a literary point of view as those that parents remember from their childhood. And such books are published that have been known and loved in the world for many years, but they have only appeared here now.

I will not become clever and recommend modern books that have received awards from critics and librarians. I want to recommend books that I vouch for. Which pull you in and don’t let go until the last page. I specifically did not include science fiction in my list, because a person will come to this genre on his own, but starting with science fiction, he can become fixated on it, and nothing else will be interesting to him.

So, a list of books that have a better chance of becoming interesting to a person aged 10-12 than those recommended by a parent or (unfortunately) the district librarian.

Anders Jakobsson, Søren Ohlsson "Bert's Diary"
The book funny tells about eleven-year-old Bert, who describes his problems and experiences in his diary.

Stephen and Lucy Hawking "George and the Secrets of the Universe" (and sequels)

Ella and her friends find themselves in funny situations on every page, and it’s impossible not to laugh while reading it.

Marie-Aude Murail “Oh, boy!”
A more serious book about the relationships of completely different people, whom fate brought together to save each other in a difficult period of life for them.

Albert Likhanov - that's all, if anyone hasn't read it
His books are about eternal themes - good and evil, courage and cowardice, hopes, dreams, actions that bring pain to someone, happiness to someone, about the difficult choice of one’s life path)

Pennak "Like a novel"
It contains the whole truth about why teenagers don’t read.

P.S. I know that I should advise reading classic, time-tested books, but these tips will not help anyone. To enjoy Dubrovsky, you must love to read, and in order to love reading, you must start with fascinating books that you won’t be able to tear yourself away from the computer or TV. Then, when a person gets into reading, he will become interested in deeper literature. And it is very difficult to interest 10-12 year olds, so I chose those books that can help with this. published

Let the grandmothers on the benches continue to mutter that young people have gone bad, you and I know that books have never been in their fashion. And the advent of smartphones and the Internet did not reduce their popularity, but made them more accessible. Science fiction, romantic stories, crazy adventures or prose about characters that seem to be copied from readers - these genres continue to be popular among teenagers.

Today, the younger generation is not very interested in literature. Books are not in demand among young people, but in vain.

After all, reading not only promotes self-development, but also improves logical thinking, develops imagination and forms the correct concept of good and evil.

During adolescence, it is very important that the child develops diversified.

Psychologists say that children over the age of 10, due to the huge amount of information, can form the wrong attitude towards the world. Which will then lead to problems in later life.

Teenagers still have a poorly formed psyche and their own outlook on life. She is easily influenced by others, often losing her own opinion.

Psychology experts say that reading books helps create a person’s individuality, set priorities correctly and understand why people do certain things.

Therefore, parents of teenagers need to insist that their child read and develop more.

Important! Many teenagers claim that they don't like to read, but this is not true. It is likely that the parents or the child himself chose the wrong book.

Literature should be selected based on the teenager’s hobbies, temperament and interests. Only in this case will the child prefer reading to playing on a computer or tablet.
