Mercedes Lackey's Take a Thief is the tale of Skif, a young orphan reminiscent of Oliver Twist, making his way in the knock-and-tumble neighborhood between two of Haven's outermost walls. Skif is intelligent, good-hearted and creative enough to forage up three meals a day in a place where food is scarce and kindness almost unheard of. After a chain of events leave him homeless, Skif lands in the lair of Bazie, an Faginish ex-mercenary who trains thieves...until he is "Chosen" by one of Valdemar's magical horses and becomes a Herald serving the Queen.
Diana wynne jones writes some books based on a character called Chrestomanci.He is a nine-life enchanter.Read the books in the correct order.The best of the lot is magicians of caprona.
Also try the Famous Five book series,R-mysterty series beginning with Rockingdown mystery,Malory Tower series,Secret Island by Enid Blyton.Its about kids have adventures and solve mysteries.
Artemis Fowl book series by Eoin Colfer is about teen age criminal mastermind Artemis Fowl who even plots to steal the gold from the fairies.

If you like sci-fi, or fantasy or just plain "different, try City of Ember (three books in series), Gregor the Overlander (4 books so far), the Giver, Last Book in the Universe, Hatchet (sveral books), Shiloh (3 books), The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane (younger but wonderful), Mister Monday (part of series), the Cryptid Hunters, etc. Anyone interested in preteen-teen books, can contact me at kristinlundgren@yahoo.com. I have a 12 yr old girl and a vast collection. All books can be found on Amazon.

The Princess Acadamy; The Goose Girl; Enna Burning; all by Shannon Hale.
Anne of Green Gables by L.M. Montgomery (any book by her is good).
So B. It by Sarah Weeks. She's also written a new book this year called Jumping the Scratch.
The Teacher's Funeral by Richard Peck--very funny--Peck writes a lot of good books.
Kira-Kira; Weedflower; both by Cynthia Kadohata.
The Legend of the Wandering King by Laura Gallego Garcia. (Her new book is The Valley of the Wolves, but it's a different genre than Legend of the Wandering King...very unlike each other).
The Lightning Thief; Sea of Monsters by Rick Riordan (series)
Gone With The Wind by Margaret Mitchell
Pepperland by Mark DeLaney

Briar Rose, by Jane Yolen.
My son's class was required to read it in 7th grade. I read it also, and I loved it.
It's the story of a young woman who travels to Poland to search for her grandmother's past. While there, she learns the horrors of Chelmno, a Nazi Death Camp.
Very moving book.
There is one sex scene that some parents may find distasteful, but it was only a few sentences.
Another great book by Jane Yolen is The Devil's Arithmetic. Again, a book about the Holocast.
I would also recommend any of the Chicken Soup books geared for teens....there are quite a few available.
Enjoy!!
