The Question

Christopher J.
"It seems that it is becoming increasingly difficult to find good books for young readers which foster virtue. My friend is looking for a website of good books lists for various age groups which are appropriate for young Catholics. Can you please offer a suggestion? His son is in 7th grade, I suggested The Lion Witch and Wardrobe and Lord of the Rings. Do you have any suggestions of where to find good reading lists and what you would suggest for a 6th grader off the top of your head?
"My thought would be to stay with the classics such as Sherlock Holmes, Huck Finn, Moby Dick, Count of Monte Christo, etc., but finding classics for 6th graders might be difficult."
