The Indian-cowboy themes and language haven’t aged well.

All great suggestions above, especially The Search for Delicious. My mom read it to me when I was little and I read it to my kids. Timeless book full of adventure! My kids have also liked the Keeper of the Lost Cities series.

Things my son enjoyed between that time frame
Harry Potter 1-3
Ramona Quimby/Henry Huggins books
Charlie and the chocolate factory
The chocolate touch
Wayside school books
Boxcar children
My favorite were the Ramona series. They are truly timeless. (Henry hasn’t aged quite so well with stereotypes, but Ramona is just typical childhood struggles)

my 1st grader is an excellent reader. He used to join us in his sister's room for bedtime stories but lately, he has been opting out to read on his own. I would love to find a chapter book that I could read to them that both of them could enjoy. any recommendations?
