As a preteen I really enjoyed these books:
StarMan's Quest by Robert Silverberg
The Zero Stone by Andre Norton
Galactic Empires Vol I & II (Can't remember the editor it's a collection of short stores)
Red Planet by Heinlein
The Secret Of Star Deep (Don't remember who wrote it, old sci-fi probably 50's)
The following I read to my kids when they were 8 or 9 (they could read, I just wanted something good to read to them)
Saturnalia by Grant Callin
The Puppet Masters by Heinlien (had to edit a few parts in this one, lol)
