Building a Home Library
An up-to-date list of recommended new and classic books for every home by age group, as compiled by the Ingram Content Group and the Children’s Book Council
A brand-new 2024 Building a Home Library book list –organized by age groups from 0 to 14– is now available.
Experts in children’s literature at the Ingram Content Group have compiled a vibrant range of genres, formats, and subject matter, with a focus on diversity of voices and from a wide range of publishers large and small.
From board books to graphic novels, picture books to middle-grade fiction, the new Building a Home Library list is a fantastic resource for all parents, caregivers, librarians, teachers, and booksellers.
