[quote=Anonymous]My kid is dyslexic, and one of the silver linings is that I have always read to him, and I still sometimes do. He's 15 and we are reading Born a Crime, alternating with the audiobook when I'm not available. This may not be a popular opinion, but my kid ADORED The Hunger Games at 10, and read and re-read it. So that would work for both your boys if you are okay with the whole dystopian kids-killing-kids thing. Or the Shipbreaker series - so well written, they are a joy to read out loud. Also dystopian, but not as violent. Enders Game is also a good rec - the first book is fabulous, and there are two more that get a little weird. How about The Hate U Give? My son loved it in 6th grade (does mention condoms, just in case that wigs you out).[/quote]
