Runningmom80 Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Fortunately the Milk by Neil Gaiman For a 7 year old girl who does have some tracking issues we are working on in VT. At least few illustrations would be ideal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HomeAgain Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 My 7yo enjoys the 'hybrid' books right now - the ones that have pen and ink illustrations and what often looks to be handwriting. The 26 Story Treehouse series was a favorite. Right now he's reading through all the Magic School Bus books he can get his hands on. Also well loved: The Winnie The Pooh books Wizard of Oz (the older books have larger type) Mr. Popper's Penguins Judy Blume's Fudge series Roald Dahl The Invention Of Hugo Cabret 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pegs Posted February 1, 2018 Share Posted February 1, 2018 Discworld! Starting with The Wee Free Men. Does your DD have access to an ereader? My DS (also precocious but in VT) has really benefited from being able to adjust the font size and spacing of the text he's reading. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miss Tick Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 I was thinking about thus thread at the library the other day when I came across the Search for WondLa books by Tony DiTerlizzi. I remember some full-page illustrations, I don't remember how dense the text was. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
