School Experience Collection: Junior & Young Adult Fiction Books

What are Junior and Young Adult Fiction?

Junior Fiction is aimed at children roughly aged 7 to 12, with age-appropriate themes, language, and adventure, mystery, or family-focused stories. Young Adult (YA) Fiction targets readers aged 12 to 18, often dealing with more mature topics like identity, relationships, mental health, and coming-of-age, while still being suitable for teenage readers.
