EarthyMama Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 Fiction books that aren't crap. LOL No "Diary of a Wimpy Kid", etc. I want good books, preferably some Christian ones... any suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShutterBug Posted March 9, 2011 Share Posted March 9, 2011 These are not all Christian themed, but Ds 8 has enjoyed... The "Kingdom" series..the first book is called "Kingdom's Dawn", these are great boy Bible analogy books with lots of excitement and adventure :) http://www.amazon.com/Kingdoms-Dawn-Kingdom-Book-1/dp/1590526791 The Redwall series The Chronicles of Narnia series The Hobbit The Fellowship of the Ring The Two Towers The Return of the King Homer Price The Harry Potter series The Invention of Hugo Cabret The Half Magic series Five Children and It Farmer Boy The Edge Chronicles series The Wind in the Willows These are just for fun books, he's also enjoyed most of his assigned reading from SL's core 3 with advanced readers (both the readers and the read alouds).

OrganicAnn Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 We've been enjoying the Mysterious Benedict Society - great vocabulary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bookfiend Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 The Moffet series by Eleanor Estes Little Pepper Series Happy Hollisters (inexpensively found on e-bay) Hank the Cowdog series Freddie Series by Walter Brooks - latest fav. ETA: not christian based, but no objectionable content Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mom2l&j Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 DS8 is getting in to the Hardy Boys series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gardening momma Posted March 10, 2011 Share Posted March 10, 2011 Another Bible analogy series is the Spirit Flyer series by John Bibee. 1. The Magic Bicycle 2. The Toy Campaign 3. The Only Game in Town 4. Bicycle Hills 5. The Last Christmas 6. The Runaway Parents 7. The Perfect Star 8. The Journey of Wishes The books are not obviously Bible analogies. I first read them as an adult and read several of the books before I caught on. I'll probably re-read them soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
