Growing up I noticed that a lot of my friends would avoid conversations about the stock market mainly because a lack of confidence or knowledge around how it works. I also saw a visible gap in financial literacy among kids that I volunteered with. The school system is doing the best they can, but we canāt rely on them to plant every seed within our kids. With the knowledge gained from friends and countless hours of research from taking classes on the stock market, I created a book that focused on teaching kids about all things stock related but also could be used as a tool of learning for all ages.
Cooper Learns to Save is such a good book to plant that seed of financial literacy early.

A Boy, a Budget and a Dream is easily one of my favorites because I related with the character first which made it so much easier to share with my son.
He is still too young to understand but it makes for a great bedtime story now. The book is easy to follow along and the illustrations are great. Jasmine does a great job in breaking down the connection between proper budgeting and having a plan to get what you want.Ā

A lot of people feel intimidated by fantasy. Admittedly, the classics of the genre can be hard to get into, with their epic worldbuilding and thousand-page counts. But what made me fall in love with fantasy was the way it made me feel. Growing up queer, Jewish, fat, and chronically ill in the American South made it impossible for me to relate to the people around me. But fantasy, with its stories of outcasts becoming saviors, resonated with me. Thatās why I started writing Queen of All when I was only twelve years oldāI wanted to make people feel seen and understood. Thatās what these books have done for me.
The conclusion to a charming middle-grade trilogy about a quick-witted demon named Bartimaeus, this book also depicts love and loss with an intensity and realism that resonates with readers of any age. I first read this book when I was about nine years old, eager to find out what would happen to the hilarious characters Iād loved so much in the first few books. Iāll never forget how hard I cried on that school bus home. I was just old enough to understand what that kind of loss would feel like, and still young enough to be moved by the storyās idealism and for the fantastical world to feel real for me. But I think, no matter who you are, this is a story at once heartbreaking and hilarious.Ā

Kitty seeks out Bartimaeus and embarks on a terrifying journey into the djinn's chaotic domain - the Other Placeā¦
When you grow up believing in magic, you inevitably face a moment when the world invites you to stop. Books are the reason to keep believing. Fantasy novels specifically give their readers magic to dive into and savor. What makes these fantasy novels so important to me is that they donāt just tell stories about magic, they tell their stories with such verve, such daring, such commitment to achieving the impossible, that they make magic. Reading these books, you will hold your breath, unable to believe that what feels like itās about to happen could possibly happen when you turn the page... but donāt worry. It will.
Guy Gavriel Kay is widely known and admired for his sweeping, epic fantasy novels, all set in fantastical version of real historical countriesābut before he turned to that genre, he wrote the Fionavar Trilogy.Ā
Think Lord of the Rings with critical differences: the characters all have a wry sense of humor and an appreciation of irony and many of those characters are women, strong, intelligent, fierce, complex women.Ā Kay also goes for broke as a storyteller here; you can almost hear him wondering, āCan I pull this off?āĀ And he does it every single time.
The first volume in Guy Gavriel Kay's stunning fantasy masterwork, now reissued with the beautiful original cover art by Martin Springett.
Five men and women find themselves flung into the magical land of Fionavar, First of all Worlds. They have been called there by the mage Loren Silvercloak, and quickly find themselves drawn into the complex tapestry of events. For Kim, Paul, Kevin, Jennifer and Dave all have their own part to play in the coming battle against the forces of evil led by the fallen god Rakoth Maugrim and his dark hordes.
An interdimensional mixer with angels and other beings brings unexpected trouble for Malachi and his friends in this smart and uniquely funny second book about the squad of teens from hell.
When an angel comes to his home to deliver a message, Malachi immediately knows whatās going on. The seraphā¦
I was reading from a young age, but I didnāt start devouring books until I found the fantasy genre. I firmly believe that there is a set of books out there that every person can love, even if they donāt consider themselves a capital-R, serious Reader. It would be a great waste for someone not to know that fantasy literature might be their special thing. If someone is searching for a genre of fiction that they could fall in love with, I sincerely hope that these books can open the doors to other worlds.
This was the first fantasy recommendation I ever got from my dad. He saw me taking an interest in stories with castles, knights, wizards, and kings and knew just the book from his favorite author to put in my hands.
I hadnāt had any experience with Stephen King before this, and I found that his prose was friendly and familiar to me; the story itself is good, a solid entry into the genre, and I found the intrigues of the villain to be the most interesting part of the story. It turns out that the King (ha) of horror can write a fine fantasy story, too.
Iāve never really felt like I belonged in this world. From early childhood independent play to building out entire backstories for my Lego creations, I dreamt of other worlds. As I grew, that developed into a love of history, mythology, philosophy, and the other components of worldbuilding. And being naturally inclined to ask, āWhat if,ā thereās nothing I love more than exploring these alien worlds. What if there was a world with a dozen sentient species? What if humans didnāt even exist in that world? What if that world was overflowing with magic? Itās these sorts of questions I most enjoy pondering.
As a proud Ravenclaw, I would be remiss if I didnāt include Harry Potter in this list. But why The Goblet of Fire? Honestly, because that was my favorite book in the series. Well, Order of the Phoenix could have had that title, but someone had to go and kill Sirius Black.Ā
When the Quidditch World Cup is disrupted by Voldemort's rampaging supporters alongside the resurrection of the terrifying Dark Mark, it is obvious to Harry Potter that, far from weakening, Voldemort is getting stronger. Back at Hogwarts for his fourth year, Harry is astonished to be chosen by the Goblet of Fire to represent the school in the Triwizard Tournament. The competition is dangerous, the tasks terrifying, and true courage is no guarantee of survival - especially when the darkest forces are on the rise.

Iāve loved fantasy and science fiction all my life. At its best, it has a numinous quality rarely seen in other books. Iāve read many of the classic fantasy novels written before fantasy was a genre. The beauty of those old books is that the writers received their inspiration from stories not influenced by The Lord of the Rings, so thereās a refreshing originality to their work. I love modern fantasy as well, especially those demonstrating new, inventive ideas.
This is one of the most delightful books on the planet.
Ostensibly written for children, itās more fun for adults. A story of two wizards, Prospero and Roger Bacon (and not the ones youāre thinking of), and their quest to find the evil destroying the world.
Itās scary and funny, and I only wish Bellairs had written a couple more such books. The rest of his work, while well-done, canāt compare to this one.
A fantasy classic by the author of The House with a Clock in Its Wallsābasis for the Jack Black movieāand āa writer who knows what wizardry is all aboutā (Ursula K. Le Guin).
Ā A richly imaginative story of wizards stymied by a power beyond their control, A Face in the Frost combines the thrills of a horror novel with the inventiveness of fairy taleāinspired fantasy. Ā Prospero, a tall, skinny misfit of a wizard, lives in the South Kingdomāa patchwork of feuding duchies and small manors, all loosely loyal to one figurehead king. Along with his necromancer friend Roger Bacon, whoā¦
A hidden curse. A thoughtful daredevil. Is this youngsterās accidental plunge into the fantastical about to unlock a wonderful surprise?

I write and read fantasy that doesnāt play safeāwhere magic is messy, divine, rotten, or reborn in mud. Iām obsessed with stories that walk barefoot through forgotten folklore, eerie townships, and mythic detours. The Fallow Swallow grew from this exact craving: for fantasy thatās personal, poetic, and just a little unwell. I gravitate toward tales that embrace magical realism, morally grey characters, and dark humourāand these books helped shape my voice as a writer.
This is the installment where things truly darken, and for that reason, itās the one that stayed with me.
The rebellion, the frustration, the looming dreadāthis book captured adolescence and tyranny with terrifying accuracy.Ā Also: Dolores Umbridge. Never have I so thoroughly *loved* to *hate* a character. It deepened my respect for fantasy that dares to simmer.
The fifth adventure in the spellbinding Harry Potter saga - the series that changed the world of books forever
Dark times have come to Hogwarts. After the Dementors' attack on his cousin Dudley, Harry Potter knows that Voldemort will stop at nothing to find him. There are many who deny the Dark Lord's return, but Harry is not alone: a secret order gathers at Grimmauld Place to fight against the Dark forces.
Harry must allow Professor Snape to teach him how to protect himself from Voldemort's savage assaults on his mind. But they are growing stronger by the day andā¦
