Hi, everyone! As the post title says, I'm trying to find some books to give my 9 (almost 10) year old sister for her birthday/Christmas. I'm kind of out of touch with kids books in that age range because I'm in college now. She has loved Junie B. Jones, Cilla Lee Jenkins, American Girl, and she has recently started reading the Mandy series by Lois Gladys Leppard. She also enjoys typical "girly" things (princesses, etc.). I have a lot of books that I really liked when I was her age, but I'm not sure if they would be appropriate for her age and reading level. Any and all suggestions are welcome!

I’m middle aged so can’t recommend anything modern. But at that age I read Babysitters Club books and books by Judy Blume.
