Bedtime stories about growing up
Children of 9 to 12 still like a story at night, as long as it does not feel babyish. These themes deal with what is new at that age: a first crush, a group chat, earning their own money, disagreeing with a parent and making a decision on their own.
The hero handles it with some help and a few mistakes. That makes the story an easy way to start a conversation without a lecture.
