Peter's father insists that he abandon Pax in the woods. One day Peter's father enlists in the military ( it is an unknown war in an undefined place and time) and Peter must go to live with his grandfather. Peter rescued Pax when he was a small fox cub and the two are inseparable. Pax by Sara Pennypacker is a lovely book. ( Side note: if your kids like squirrels, I recommend the Park Pals Adventure series.) I found it well-written but as it was about clashing clans of squirrels, instead of finishing it I handed it off to my son who pronounced it, "great." Lucky is a red squirrel who finds himself in a community of grey squirrels, named the "Cloudfoots." Lucky must pass the Squirrel Trial in order to secure his future as a member of the clan. I started reading this book, and immediately knew it would be great for a list of books like Warriors. (Note: book covers and titles are affiliate links.)

The list includes a few middle grade books in the "warring clans of animals" genre, but since this is not a topic that interests me I am recommending a larger variety of titles. In short, this list is not limited to "books like Warriors," but it is heavy on the animal/in-the-wild theme. Yet, given all the plot points that my kids have related to me in careful, unsolicited detail, and the few audiobooks I have tried not pay attention to, I feel as if I have. However, if you would like your kids to branch out from warring clans of feral cats I've got a few Warrior read alike chapter book suggestions for your kids who like Warriors.įirst a confession. The publishers of the Warriors and Seekers books have churned out a million novels. If your kids like the Warriors series by Erin Hunter ( Hunter is actually a team of writers) they have a lot of reading material to get through.
