Many book reviews are available on RedeemedReader.com, a website that I highly recommend. Below are some Mid-Elementary School level (roughly age 6-9) books that are reviewed on the site.

These books are not necessarily recommended! RedeemedReader.com has rather high standards for actually recommending a book. (See this post for books that are actually recommended by RedeemedReader.com for this age level.) The books listed here are reviewed (which means they are viewed to have at least some literary value), but you should be diligent to check out the reviews via the links to decide if they are a good fit for your family.
