Fourth Grade Book List

Whether you’re looking for something for your kids to read as an independent reading, book study, or a fun read-aloud, it can be hard to find good books with engaging storylines that will hook young readers. This Fourth Grade Book List has books for each of these options and more! 

At this age, I looked over the books that my children chose outside of “classics”. They were allowed to choose books that interested them, but they had to be pass mom’s inspection. 

By allowing them the freedom to choose books and reviewing them I was able to teach my children how to choose quality literature. If there were books that they selected that I didn’t allow them to check out from the library, we always had a conversation regarding my reasons for not allowing them to read a particular book. 

Reading should be fun, but I believe that literature should challenge and grow its readers.

There were times that my children chose genres that I didn’t love, but that they truly enjoyed. Typically, I would allow them to read one fun, “silly” book for every classic. 

My children’s favorite books in fourth grade included, ‘Warriors‘, ‘I Survived‘, ‘Encyclopedia Brown‘, ‘Little House on the Prarie‘ and ‘Wings of Fire‘.
