1. I chose THE NOTEBOOK by Nicholas Sparks to search for read-alike. In Novelist, Sparks' read-alike are: Emily Grayson's THE GAZEBO, James Michael Pratt's THE LAST VALENTINE, and Richard Paul Evans' THE LAST PROMISE.
Fiction L recommended Richard Paul Evans' THE CHRISTMAS BOX, Emily Grayson's THE GAZEBO, and Lorina Landvik's PATTY JANE'S HOUSE OF CURL.
When I tried What should I read next, I got an internal server error 500; so I went to Library Booklist If you like and found read-alike in the HORSE WHISPERER by Nicholas Evans, THE LAST PROMISE - Richard Paul Evans, THE GAZEBO - Emily Grayson, A MYSTIC LAKE - Kristin Hannah, SUZANNE'S DIARY FOR NICHOLAS - James Patterson, THE LAST VALENTINE - James Michael Pratt and BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY - Robert James Waller. Recommendations from these three sites were overlapping with one or two new titles. I have read and thoroughly enjoyed BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY and SUZANNE'S DIARY FOR NICHOLAS but I now additional titles to explore. I didn't encounter any problems researching this information other than the internal server error. These resources have a wealth of information which will be very helpful in recommending books to library members when they have exhausted their reading list.
2: For the fourth grade girl, I went to Library Booklist Chapter Books Animal Stories and found THE TROUBLE WITH TUCK BY Theodore Taylor, a young girl who trains her blind dog to follow and trust a seeing-eye companion dog; and BABE, THE GALLANT PIG by Dick King-Smith, a piglet that arrives at the farmyard, is adopted by an old sheepdog, and discovers a special secret to success.
Novelist helped me find DEEP AND DARK AND DANGEROUS by Mary Downing Hahn and RESTLESS: A GHOST'S STORY by Rich Wallace for her 13 year old brother who was interested in ghost stories.
3: Dean Koontz writes novels of many genre, combining suspense, horror, fantasy and sci-fi thrillers. I used the Library Booklist to find Stephen King, John Saul and Peter Straub for the customer who needed read-alike for Koontz. Novelist recommends Greg Bear, Dan Simmons, and John Saul.

Book #1. Alanna: The First Adventure
