[quote=Anonymous]39 Clues-- my DS loves it. I like that people are mentioning classics. Your son might enjoy Sounder (short but thematically mature), Black Beauty, or even a Jules Verne book if he's particularly intrepid (shortest is Around the World in 80 Days)-- or The Hobbit. Other thoughts: The Far Side of the Mountain, Hatchet, Stone Fox. I've read that kids can "flatline" reading skills at around the middle school level. (i.e. kids choose to read books with easy text). You might look at the lexile or scholastic websites when providing guidance- make sure that the difficulty level is there so that your son continues to advance his reading skills. [/quote]
