Books recommended for younger teenagers. Some of these books may contain material that some may deem unsuitable for younger readers.

Note: Write Away does not advocate age banding of books. These categories are intended to help parents, teachers and librarians locate books but we also advise extending your search to include books that have been included in older and younger age categories. We also recognise that many books defy easy classification and so the same book will frequently appear in more than one age category.
