Book Recommendation For 10 Year Old.
16 Answers
Friends eldest is 10 and loves reading. I have started looking for second hand books for her. All the things I have thought about getting her but thought she was too young she has read or currently reading such as call of the wild and white fang. I thought I might get huckleberry Finn for her. Would love to get her a hardback copy of To Kill a Mockingbird as I think it is the best book ever written. Looking for a girls perspective.
I have bought her a basic book on economics which I think she will hate me for but if she is going to ask intelligent questions this is what she will get!

I read Agatha Christie when I was that age but it depends on whether she is a girly girl or 'normal'.

An excellent recommendation, Bednobs. Reading should be FUN for youngsters!

I too would suggest Terry Pratchett.

You could start her on the Tiffany Aching books - starting with The Wee Free Men

I sell books for a living and can tell you that most girls love Jacqueline Wilson books (although some may be a bit mature for her). David walliams books are all very popular too - and of course there are the Harry potter books (which must be read in the right order). Michael morpurgo is another very popular children's author and well worth a look
