[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Beverly Cleary is a good choice, though I will say it depends on your boy. My daughter loved the Beezus and Ramona books, but my son wasn't into them. The more boy focused books (The Mouse and the motorcycle, the Henry books) were not quite as accessible and readable at the Ramona series. My kids loved a Cricket in Times Square at that age. And it's a great age for Laura Ingalls Wilder - again these did not interest my son, but my daughter loved them. [/quote] My son and daughter both loved the Ramona books and Judy Blume Fudge books. Also not along the lines of what you mentioned, but they found the Pippi Longstocking books hilarious. My son also loved a short animal-based series called the Nocturnals at that age. (Both were bored to tears by the Little House books, fwiw.)[/quote]
