ItoLina Posted March 7, 2014 Author Share Posted March 7, 2014 Big thanks to everyone for all the suggestions. Taking a list to my library this weekend to check some things out and see which ones would interest him and which I think he will be able to handle in terms of reading ability :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
