What is a chapter book?

A chapter book is a type of book that is typically targeted towards older children, usually between the ages of 7-12. These books are longer than picture books and contain multiple chapters that tell a continuous story.

Chapter books often have more complex plots, character development, and themes than picture books, making them suitable for more advanced readers. They may also include black and white illustrations to complement the text and help engage younger readers.

Some popular examples of chapter book series include "Harry Potter" by J.K. Rowling, "Percy Jackson and the Olympians" by Rick Riordan, and "The Magic Tree House" by Mary Pope Osborne. These books can be found in libraries, bookstores, and online retailers, and are a great way for children to develop their reading skills and immerse themselves in new worlds and adventures.
