Fourth of July Books for Teens
After the success of the Fourth of July Picture Book post Mary Emma and I decided that you all should also have a resource for teens. I had a heck of a time finding teen books that were specifically about the Fourth of July or Independence day so I had to modify my search to teen books about summer.
I think that I have come up with a pretty good list…but I love controversial teen reads. These are all older teen reads.
- Dandelion Wine
- Keeping the Moon
- Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants
- Feed
- Not a Happy Camper: A Memoir
- The Notebook
- Someone Like Summer
- Thirteen Reasons Why
- One Fat Summer
Plus, check out these brand new titles…


































I think teen books that are about the Fourth of July would be a challenge. Although I’m sure there’s some historical ones out there somewhere.
