Better with Books: 500 Diverse Books to Ignite Empathy and Encourage Self-Acceptance in Tweens and Teens

Needed now more than ever: a guide that includes 500 diverse contemporary fiction and memoir recommendations for preteens and teens with the goal of inspiring greater empathy for themselves, their peers, and the world around them.
Â
As young people are diagnosed with anxiety and depression in increasing numbers, or dealing with other issues that can isolate them from family and friendsâ€“such as bullying, learning disabilities, racism, or homophobiaâ€“characters in books can help them feel less alone. And just as important, reading books that feature a diverse range of real-life topics helps generate openness, empathy, and compassion in all kids. Better with Books is a valuable resource for parents, teachers, librarians, therapists, and all caregivers who recognize the power of literature to improve young readersâ€™ lives.
Â
Each chapter explores a particular issue affecting preteens and teens today and includes a list of recommended related booksâ€“all published within the last decade. Recommendations are grouped by age: those appropriate for middle-grade readers and those for teens.

Reading lists are organized around:
Adoption and foster care
