We went today but she was overwhelmed and not sure what to pick. She picked up a book from a series called The Never Girls (by Disney, based off Tinkerbell), but she said it's more for younger kids. She's pretty mature but not quite ready for some of the popular YA books. Any good ideas for her? </p>
