They'll be driving together for 3 full days. Son is 10 and a nonfiction lover. Unfortunately, he's always hated whimsical type fantasy or anything that seems entirely unrealistic. We recently listened to Where the Red Fern Grows and he LOVED it. I'm thinking he's ready for Hatchet, and I'm considering Call of the Wild and God's Smuggler. Any other suggestions?

The Incredible Journey is really good. My 8 year old loved reading Hatchet, our librarian recommended it after she listened to the audiobook. The Trumpet of the Swan, especially if you have the version read By EB White is good too.

My Side of the Mountain would probably appeal to him, if he enjoyed Where the Red Fern Grows.  

 

Also...Woods Runner is another good historical fiction piece.  Johnny Tremain was mentioned above...it's a bit dry, but if he enjoys non-fiction, he may enjoy this historical fiction piece.
