[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Horrible Histories by Terry Deary.  It's a British series, but it's great for boys.  Lot of humor and it's all real history.  My son just turned nine and has read most of them.  Here's a link (if it works) to them on Amazon.  http://www.amazon.com/Blood-Curdling-Horrible-Histories-Terry-Deary/dp/1407108158

Recommended by some overseas friends and worth every penny.[/quote]

Not the OP, but my kid is going to love this - he's huge into history and loves he Who Was? books, so I think this will be right up his alley.  Thanks![/quote]

Another thank you for this suggestion!

My son loves the I Survived series, but can fly through a book in a day.  The Horrible Histories look to be a bit longer, but have a similar feel.

I would also suggest some of the classics - The Hatchet, Because of Winn Dixie,  (+1 for) A Wrinkle in Time...[/quote]
