    I say Harry Potter. It is easy to read and it keeps children’s interest.

    My little brother really liked the Time Warp Trio, about three boys who get this magic book that takes them around to diffrent points in time. He also liked Philip Pullmans I Was a Rat, a spin on the old cinderella story.

    Try the Ralph S. Mouse Books by Beverly Cleary. There are 3 of them. The Mouse and the motorcycle, Runaway Ralph, and Ralph S. Mouse. They are great books. I read them when I was little, my 11 year old read them over and over, and now my 6 year old is reading them. They may be old, but they are classics. Actually anything by Beverly Cleary is a good choice.

    When I was that age (not so long ago) I really liked the Animorph series (I would suggest that one for boys) and the Heartland Series (for girls), but either series could be read by any kid.

    Animorphs is about 5 kids that are given the power to turn into any animal they want by an alien. They have to save the world from evil aliens.

    Heartland is about a girl who’s mother dies and leaves her to take care of the horse farm they own. She learns to make unmanageable horses, into calmer horses, and heals herself over time. Really touching.

    Narnia or harry potter. I also loved the children’s classics when I was 6; alice in wonderland, snow white, the little mermaid etc..

    I would have to say that the Chronicles of Narnia have to be the best all-around SERIES of books for single-digit-midgets. I feel that Harry Potter, although great for anybody over 11 or 12, deals with far too many dark subjects for the younger crowd. Although CoN (Chronicles of Narnia) teaches about morality and doing the right thing, it never gets "scary" like Potter or even TLotR (The Lord of the Rings).
    As an addition, my oldest (now 11) absolutely ADORED the Junie B. Jones series of books, but they’re too "girlie" for boys.

    That’s definitely Harry Potter.

    The boxcar children, Babysitter’s club, Sweet Valley Twins, Nancy Drew, Hardy Boys, Animorphs, Time Warp Trio, A-Z Mysteries, Magic Tree House….

    I have to second Southern Bell….Beverly Cleary’s Ramona books are also good reading..and there are several where Ramona is in that age bracket. The Henry Huggins books rock to, although the illustrations will probably be a little old fashioned.

    The Boxcar Children Series by Gertrude Chandler Warner.

  • shoshanamom says:

    series of unfortunate events.

    these books are great and so creatively and cleverly written. they also define the words within the text which is great- teaches new words & phrases.

    my daughter loves them and so do I ..she also loves the harry potter series. she just turned 9 but she has been reading both series since age 5-6.
