  1. Your girls might enjoy the "Wondla" Trilogy by Tony DiTerlizzi. I'm finishing the 3rd book with my lil bug. She hopes she can be like Eva. I will only say that Eva is the 11 year hero in this series in order to not spoil it for you.

  2. These are great! And it reminded me that my oldest needs to read the Mother-Daughter Book Club series. I enjoyed them, and she's the right age for them now.
