A truly extensive book list for the 'tween to teen age set. The non-fiction recommendations include some of the best works out there for any age group. One drawback -- you have to join to be able to read annotated lists.

This is yet another great site to help parents and educators find additional reading material for voracious readers. I especially like the list of books for college bound students, as it can be a good place to pull higher-level reading material for more advanced younger students.
