The best middle grade non-fiction is just as absorbing as middle grade fiction. My favorite brand of middle grade non-fiction is memoirs, especially graphic memoirs. I also enjoy the “self-help” genre, such as books geared to help kids write better, improve their entrepreneurial methods, or find better friendships.

If you’re looking to add more middle grade non-fiction to your reading list, then this list will help. I’ve included food books, graphic memoirs, historical stories, books to help kids write better, and much more.
