[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had trouble persuading my kid in K to read books other than Magic Treehouse — he was just rereading over and over.  We gave him Tales from Deckawoo Drive for Christmas and that totally hooked his interest. He just finished that series and now we’re looking for something to follow. [/quote]

I think many of the books I’ve posted would appeal to him.

Time Warp Trio is very similar to Magic Treehouse, but slightly edgier.  I think it’s aimed at boys that might be a little older than Magic Treehouse readers, if your son is particularly sensitive you might want to wait until he’s a little older.

I’m unfamiliar with the Deckawoo Drive books, but looking at the samples on Amazon, I think he’d probably really enjoy the McBroom and Flat Stanley series.  I think some other good suggestions would be Mrs. Piggle-Wiggle, Frindle, Cinderellis and the Glass Hill by Gail Caron Levine, Beverly Cleary, and Where the Sidewalk Ends.

Many of the other suggestions could be good too, they just might be slightly intense and/or more dissimilar to his preferences so far.[/quote]
