James Patterson’s Children’s Books

James Patterson's Children's BooksWhen I said that James Patterson writes books for all ages, I meant it. Below are a few of James Patterson’s children’s books that I think you will enjoy sharing with your kiddos. Introducing books at a very young age is extremely beneficial to our children. Exposing them to books on a regular basis can encourage the love of reading and promote creativity. I started reading books to my own children before they were even born and they have been exposed to books ever since.

I started them out with those soft books for babies and moved them up to board books and picture books as toddlers. Throughout their school years, they were always reading something. You should see my library of children’s books! My kids have since grown up to be very intelligent young adults that still love to read. I take pride in the thought that I had a little something to do with that and I encourage you to start your children off early. Kids are never too young to start learning!

    Hi Tracy,

    Thanks for your post. You were indeed right when you mentioned that introducing books to kids at a young age will promote their creativity and love for reading.  My mom introduced books to me at a really young age, we started with the Bible and picture books since then I’ve loved reading and still do. I still love picture books. I like the list of James Patterson’s children books you compiled, he’s indeed a creative writer.

    This article is so cute. I already had the idea to read books to my children before they were born and then go on to turn them into reading lovers, your article supports my choice and I am happy to discover new books for little ones. I didn’t know James Patterson had made books for little ones like this. I will read them to my children! (when I have some… ahah)
    Thank you for this article, I’ll wait for the next one.

      You bet! I love James Patterson’s children’s books too! I love that he and his wife wrote the Little Geniuses series, it’s such a cute series. I’m really glad to hear that you have plans to read to your little ones as early as possible. There are so many people that have no idea about all of the different types of books James Patterson has written. I love it when I can show someone something new. Thank you for visiting and Happy Reading!

    My mom would read books to me before bed all of the time.  It was a special time that we would spend together and I will never forget them.  Reading books to your children really does increase parental bonding.  With so many parents using the TV or other electronics to entertain their children, this bonding time becomes more essential than ever.  Hopefully, more children will grow up with a love of books and learning!

      Thanks for the comments, I agree with you completely, reading has so many benefits and what precious moments those are, reading to your children. It sounds like you have a pretty awesome mom. Thanks for reading about James Patterson’s Children’s Books. Come back again! Happy Reading!

    What a wonderful post, Tracy! Thanks for putting together this awesome list. Patterson is one of those authors whose excellence really does shine across all age groups and genres! The fact that he makes it look easy is, in my opinion, a key statement as to how amazing he really is as a writer.

    Introducing children to books early on in life is so, so beneficial. I come from a family of bookworms (I was reading Tolkien in elementary school), and my love for reading has taken me so many amazing places – both real and fictional. I have a three year-old daughter who shares my love of books. She’s already learning how to sound out and put together words, and it absolutely makes my heart soar! I practically exploded with pride when I asked her what she wanted for her birthday, and she said, “I want to learn how to read!” These are wonderful suggestions and I’ll definitely be checking them out.

      Hi Hannah, first, I have to tell you that I love your name, I almost named my only daughter Hannah, but decided on Payton, which I also adore. Anyway, James Patterson amazes me every day, I wish that I could write like him. I’m happy that you found my post and I especially love hearing how your family is filled with bookworms. I think these books, especially the ‘Little Geniuses’ would be a lot of fun for you and your three-year-old to share for years to come. You should be a very proud mom, she’s three and wants to read! Good for you and great job! Thank you for the kind words and for sharing your story with me. I hope you enjoy the books. Happy Reading!

    An absolute jewel of a site Tracy. Your approach is wonderful, building a library of their own from a very young age. If one does not read, your soul is very poor! Your kids have a great advantage in life with a Mom like you.
    Thank you for giving so much attention to good manners. Good manners and true values make an adult a quality person, who earns respect and trust where ever he goes.
    Your summaries are so good and one feels like buying each and every book!
    It was a joy to read all about books again!
