and from the other end of the reading spectrum....
my just turned 8yr old is reading Dr. Seuss. Green Eggs and Ham is the favorite this week. |

SOmeone suggested Tuesday in the Castle series....I read these on a plane when I didn't pack an "adult" book because I didn't anticipate having any free time! They are really good!
I also really recommend the Daniel Pinkwater books. My kids 7-9 really like the 39 Clues series also. And my 7 year old really likes the Geronimo Stilton books. |
