Here's a list of Space Opera stories written specifically for the Middle Grade audience since MG became a recognized book category. 'MG Space Opera' is defined as a science-fiction based novel STARRING A JUVENILE PROTAGONIST (age 8-13) on an extra-planetary or galactic scale which has a heavy emphasis on character development and (usually) beating overwhelming odds in addition to the worldbuilding and science. MG Space Opera tales that include contemporary MG issues and concerns, such as friendship, family, school, social problems, and other story lines which appeal to MG sensibilities are welcome.

AUTHORS: these listopias are a pain-in-the-butt to update (requires grovelling to Goodreads administration), so you will not endear yourself to the very small and intimate community of avid sci-fi readers you hope to reach if you are a jerk and spam this list with irrelevant crap or every...single...book in your series. You will quickly find yourself blacklisted from people's reading lists if you act like a jerk, so please be polite and follow the rules.
