Books for 7 yo similar to My Weird/Weirder School

Anonymous
My son loves the series and we are looking for similar books/series, but nothing so far has stuck. Any recommendations? Nothing scary please. Looking for short chapter books, not graphic novels (which he already reads plenty of and has favorites). Thank you!

My son likes those and also like Geronimo Stilton which isn't technically a graphic novel, not short though.

The author, Dan Gutman, has several series so you might want to try another one. My kids loved Genius Files.

Sideways Stories from Wayside School by Louis Sachar
13 Story Treehouse by Andy Griffiths
Freckle Juice by Judy Blume
Fudge Books by Judy Blume
I Survived series by Lauren Tarshis


I know you said no graphic novels but I'm suggesting the Nathan Hale Hazardous Tales books anyway. They're nonfiction but really fun and they have more text than most graphic novels.

Wayside School
Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle

Also recommend:
McBroom books by Sid Fleischman
Flat Stanley
Frindle by Andrew Clements
Danny Dunn
Beverly Cleary
Encyclopedia Brown
Einstein Anderson
Cam Jansen
Secrets of Droon (the special editions might be a little intense/scary)

A little different, but I think they’d be good:
Where the Sidewalk Ends by Shel Silverstein (quirky poetry)
Kate Klise books (she writes books in the form of letters, newspaper articles, journal entries, etc.)
