Just as I said, Galaxy Zack series (he must have been 7 at the time though), Time Jumpers (fairly recently, there's only 4 of them and I don't know if the author will write more), Desmond Cole (about ghosts). But that's pretty much all for the last 1+ years... I'm trying some of the "Scooby-Doo" books, not comics but regular chapter books, and he seems to read them at least. I'm going to try more "grown up" books (just picked up Class Dismissed, it's a winner of some prize or whatever), we'll see how it goes.
But it's honestly really frustrating. I'm older (grew up in the 80s) and we read MUCH more, and I think it's important.
Do you know of any resources/discussions I can look up/participate in?
- sn9 2y agoMensa surprisingly has some good age-appropriate book lists linked at the bottom of this page: https://www.mensaforkids.org/achieve/excellence-in-reading/ https://www.mensaforkids.org/achieve/excellence-in-reading/ (At that age, I was a huge Animorphs fan, but some parents might not be comfortable with the violence and gore.)
