I expected Sci-fi/Fantasy to win our poll about kids' favorite genres, but I didn't expect such a landslide! The final results:
Sci-fi/Fantasy: 34 (47.2%)
Adventure: 13 (18.1%)
Mystery/Thriller: 8 (11.1%)
Classic: 6 (8.3%)
Historical: 5 (6.9%)
Other: 4 (5.6%)
Humor: 2 (2.8%)
While we'll continue to review books from all the different genres, these results help us to know more about what you need from us, so thanks to all who participated! I hope you'll vote in our new poll, on the left.

On the current poll I chose, "Read it with him or her," but really I read it first and then decide whether or not to read it with my child. One book I decided to not let my nine-year old daughter read and I explained to her why. She understood and appreciated that I took the time to keep her safe from overly scary/spooky/yucky material.
