mrs.m Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 The Sword in the Tree and The Minstrel in the Tower what else do you suggest he read? These are well below his reading level but I found that he loses interest in longer books. He finished both of these in one day because he coudn't put them down. This is a really good thing! :D He loves non-fiction and this is the first time he asked for more fiction books "like these" so I might be able to sneak in something a bit longer. He is currently reading The Lion, the Witch, and The Wardrobe aloud with his daddy. So we are working on longer books. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
.... Posted November 20, 2011 Share Posted November 20, 2011 My daughter is a huge fan of Clyde Robert Bulla and she's liked Pocohontas and the Strangers, Riding the Pony Express, Viking Adventure, etc. Other books she's really liked (because maybe they have the same taste in books :tongue_smilie:): Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH Pedro's Journal Sign of the Beaver Carry On, Mr. Bowditch Misty of Chincoteague Island of the Blue Dolphins Red Dragon Codex (she's reading this now, but I can't vouch for the age appropriateness - my daughter says there are some scary scenes) we're also reading thru the Narnia series and using ROAR!

Dd went through a stage of only liking these kind of books. She loved to read one a day. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
