Good day, dear readers! Did you know that a child’s model of the world is formed from the moment he is born until he is 12 years old? It turns out that 9 years is practically the final stage. But it’s not too late to guide your child in the right direction. I wonder how?

This is what I want to talk about today. One of our main helpers is books for children 9 years old. But how to choose and classify them correctly? Let's try not to miss the right moment and choose the right literature for our children!

From a conversation with one teacher, I learned some information regarding the culture of reading and raising children. Adults often forget that they are doing something reprehensible in the presence of a child. Has this ever happened to you? We demand from our child what we ourselves do not fulfill.

For example, almost everyone talks while eating. Well, yes, the most common situation: evening, the family got together for dinner. People share information. So why do we reprimand children if they also talk while stuffing their mouths? There should be a ban for everyone. Oh yes! Well, of course! Our information is much more important than theirs. That’s why let the kids be silent, and we will continue the conversation.

Well, this is just one example: it applies to anything. And the little ones build themselves and their views on the world by looking at you and me, at their surroundings. And they won’t take on book publishing if it’s not established in the family. Therefore, if you want to instill in your child a love of reading, start with yourself. And now we’ll find out which works will be useful at this age!

Classification

Parents of third-graders may face the problem of restlessness and inattention. Yes, this happens. A compromise must be sought everywhere. By the way, how are things going with this? Be sure to give your children the right to choose, ask what he wants to take from the bookshelf to read today. After all, what one person likes may not suit another. Incorrectly selected literature will push a child away from the world of books in general.

Of course, kids are all different. I understand. But today I will try to offer as much as possible suitable options for all. And first I will divide the books into categories. Then I will give a list of each separately. And at the end I will also recommend options for boys and girls separately! So, the classification:

1. Fairy tales and stories.
2. Poems.
3. Adventure and fantasy.
4. Cognitive.
5. For boys.
6. For girls.

Fairy tales and stories

During this period there will be more interesting magical stories, with humor and miracles. But teachers advise offering students works with a dose of tragedy. Those that affect interpersonal relationships. Difficult? But we need to slowly take off our rose-colored glasses. No! Let them continue to believe in miracles! But you also need to prepare for life. This is learned through books.

At this age, you need the concept that everything is given for work, and not just like that. I hope I wrote it clearly? The line is very thin and the topic is serious. But I managed to find something interesting in an online bookstore. See for yourself:

• "Malachite Box" Bazhov P.
• “Vitya Maleev at school and at home” Nosov N.N. A very good example about school to encourage your child to learn.
• "Oorfene Deuce and his wooden soldiers" Volkov A.
• "Kashtanka" Chekhov A.P.
• "Filipok" Tolstoy L.N.
• "Noscoeds" Schrute P. The strangest creature on the planet that eats socks! This is why they disappear so often! A funny and light work that young readers will really like.

You see, there is already something to think about in these books. It is very good if the child readily retells texts. Help him with this, talk about what he read. Explain the meaning. Yes, about retellings! A great option - poems! Let's talk about them.

Poetry

And memory training, and general development, and love for nature! That's a lot of functions in one bottle, as they say! What books should I read, what should I choose so that this restless person can finally calm down and get down to business?

• "Paper Umbrella" Boroditskaya M.
• "The Ballad of the Little Tugboat" Brodsky I. An unusual poem, I would say, educational. The interesting thing about it is that the narration comes from the name of the tugboat!
• "Poetry" Pushkin A.S.
• "Poems for Children" Yesenin Sergey.

In my opinion, they are quite easy to remember and interesting. And now I’ll tell you about adventure writings.

Adventure and fantasy

How interesting it is sometimes to go into the world of fantasy! Especially if you are a child between 8 and 11 years old! Are you familiar with any works? Perhaps you remember what you read as a child? And I recommend a small list of the best publications:

• "Kingdom of Crooked Mirrors" Gubarev V.
• "Alice in Wonderland" Lewis Carroll.
• "Walking castle" Diana Jones.
• "Northern lights" Pullman F. This is already more complex work than the previous ones on this list. But reading is not forbidden! If a student is interested, he knows how to comprehend, why not?
• "Endless story" Michael Ende.

How is this a proposal? There are both familiar to us and more modern publications. If a child knows how to comprehend the material he reads, then he will learn all the good things that books bring. But there are publications that use completely truthful examples to talk about what is happening around us. Guess what I mean? Certainly! Educational encyclopedias and not only encyclopedias.

Cognitive

Curious children will be very happy if you give them such essays as a gift. Honestly, everyone will be happy about this. Do you know why? Absolutely here unusual facts, acquaintance with the unknown world of animals and plants. Even with space!

• "Why don't birds fall" Kolmanovsky Ilya. I decided to start the review with this fascinating book. The author simply collected all the variety of children's questions and gave answers to them in his publications. Here he talks about birds. And the story is told in a language accessible to children. Recommended reading for ages 7 to 10. Although there is a lot of interesting things for adults here too.
• The Guinness Book of Records will be very exciting for young readers. The most Interesting Facts, collected from different areas human life! Just what you need for curious kids!
• "Insects. School Guide" Mark Makhlin.
• "Riddles and secrets of pets", « Dog riddles" And " Cat riddles", author Svetlana Lavrova.
• "Big Book of Knowledge".
• “What is good and evil?” Oscar Breniffier. I wanted to stop the list, but then I came across this encyclopedia of goodness. Unusual, because it says here in simple language how to act in this life. A distinction is made between good and bad. Get acquainted with this publication.

For girls

The fair half will be curious about stories about themselves, that is, about princesses! And the fantasy genre is also unlikely to be ignored if main character there's a girl there! Well, now the list itself:

• "Alice's Adventures" Kir Bulychev.
• "Blue Bead" Maria Kruger.
• "Pippi Longstocking" Astrid Lindgren.
• "Prostokvashino" Eduard Uspensky.

For boys

Mostly boys are lovers of adventure and all that. And I made the selection based on these interests.

• "Far Countries" Arkady Gaidar.
• "Adventures of Tom Sawyer" Mark Twain.
• "Tim Thaler, or Sold Laughter" James Crews.

These are the recommendations for your children. Tell us, what works are you familiar with? How did they benefit young readers? What are they interested in at the age of 9? I look forward to your comments! And subscribe to blog updates. All the best! Bye!

The long-awaited holidays have arrived. It seems like you can relax. But...it turns out that they also give for the summer homework. For example, summer reading lists! At first, this circumstance is upsetting. But this is only at the beginning. Because most of the recommended books are very interesting! What to read on the train? Preferably something so that you won’t even notice how time has flown by? Or on a plane? Or in the waiting room... And before going to bed, it is advisable to read at least 5 pages so as not to forget the letters over the summer! In a word, I suggest not to be upset, but to download the entire recommended list into your reader and read it slowly. There is a saying: “The eyes are afraid, but the hands do!” So it’s only at the beginning that it seems like they asked too much and it’s simply not realistic to cope with such a huge list! In fact, the main thing is to start. Meanwhile, I want to offer an approximate list “ What to read in the summer for children 10-11 years old"

I advise you to start a reading diary or even before you start reading. To immediately make all the necessary notes, write down your impressions and thoughts, the names of the main characters, geographical names, time of action and even favorite quotes. These notes will come in handy later during the school year. And most teachers require not just reading during the summer holidays, but reading and keeping a literary diary.

Happy summer reading!
