I tried to focus only on the 11-year-old age range. No all the books in this list are about tzadikim but are appropriate for Orthodox young readers. There is an extensive range of JUV lit for Orthodox Jewish children today. Let me know if you need more suggestions. Shabbat Shalom.

I have ordered a number of the volumes of the 5-volume series of that name for him. We are a library in a Reform synagogue and do not have a deep shelf of books that might engage this patron and his friends. Can anyone suggest other titles to me? Specifically, books referencing the childhood experiences of the tzaddikim from the past and/or graphic novels of interest? Thank you!
