From the many middle grade books that release this month, we’ve picked 16 of the best new middle grade books for kids ages 7 through 12. You’ll find non-fiction, sports fan fiction, an outstanding Raina Telgemier graphic novel, contemporary tales, an embarrassingly honest look at growing up, a novel in verse, and a hilariously scary chapter book perfect for the upcoming spooky season.

It’s Music in our Schools Month and these recent titles on music (and` loneliness, getting lost, Vivaldi, and being a big sister) and so much more will make you want to groove, rock n’ roll, waltz, and bang your head.

Audrey Vernick is the author of many books for all ages; including her latest “So You Want to be a Rock Star” and “Brothers at Bat: The True Story of an Amazing All Brother Team” coming in April. Vernick also garnered rave reviews for her touching middle grade novel Water Balloon.
