My oldest child, Carter Lane West, turns 12 today. He’s an amazing kid, who loves Jesus,
Minecraft, and reading. So, in honor of
his birthday, I thought I’d try something.
Below is a list of books/series that Carter has already read, in
basically the order that he thinks are his favorites. My request, as a gift for him, is for you to
let me know in the comments of any other books that you think a 12-year old boy
(with the below list) would also enjoy.
I’ll add my own in the comments that we already have on the shelf, ready
for the new year.
