Also feel free to give other book recomendations so I can have ideas for new books to get or use from the library.

Cool, thanks for the recommendations! Here are some of my absolute favs. 1. OCDaniel by Wesley King. 2. Whatever After series. 3. Babysitter's Club series (I suggest that you do the old ones, not the adapted one or graphic novels. When I say old, I mean like 1980s old!) 4. My Life In A FishTank by Barabra Dee 5. Life In Motion by Misty Copeland. 6. Black Ballerinas: My Journey to Our Legacy by Misty Copeland (I own this book and I love it. The illustrations are painted beautifully) Happy Reading!

Wings of Fire/Keeper of the Lost Cities (Wings of Fire is my favorite series of the ones you listed, but KOTLC is pretty good too.)
