Others I know boys that age like are How to Eat Fried Worms, the Goosebumps series, The Mouse and the Motorcycle, and Henry Huggins.Blush a.k.a.

Drew then informed me that we already have it. So I sat Jacob down and read with him. It took twenty monutes to read four pages. I figured out that he needs to read 5 pages a day to get it done by the due date. It's gonna be a long year. <br /><br />How I wish that he loved to read . . . but I guess I'm lucky that I have one child that LOVES to read--she does at least 100 pages a day. What a contrast.<br /><br />As for Throttle, I've thought about having Jacob do a report on it . . . I'll have to wait till his real teacher comes back ;)DJ Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04615339246113917504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2917328764825378054.post-66694365829305436922009-09-02T19:48:33.416-07:002009-09-02T19:48:33.416-07:00Katie is reading Harry Potter and she's comple...Katie is reading Harry Potter and she's completely enchanted by it.

I am sure he could do a report on The Magic Tree House books. The Tales of Despereax were fun and the Chronicles of Narnia are much simpler than you probably remember. Why not look at fablehaven and take it a chapter at a time. <br /><br />Or Throttle Jones I hear that series is perfect for a boy his age...oh wait ITS NOT OUT YET!!!!! Finish that one and have him write a report. Then you can send his report in as a query letter attachment.Diva Donnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07212847651776831475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2917328764825378054.post-87347274834691383252009-09-02T18:15:29.652-07:002009-09-02T18:15:29.652-07:00I have this friend who has a great idea for a midd...I have this friend who has a great idea for a middle grade boy series...<br /><br />With that aside, though, my six year old LOVED the "Spiderwick Chronicles". We also read "A Series of Unfortunate Events". Both are really good for boys.Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13020235392352824025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2917328764825378054.post-78105427252525168912009-09-02T15:48:07.417-07:002009-09-02T15:48:07.417-07:00A lot of books by Louis Sachar ought to fill that-...A lot of books by Louis Sachar ought to fill that--and not just Holes. I think he wrote the "Wayside School" books, and I know he wrote "There's a Boy in the Girls' Bathroom", but I can't remember how long that one is. I loved his books when I was in elementary school.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13342192635635750418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2917328764825378054.post-55883216818814123622009-09-02T15:33:50.446-07:002009-09-02T15:33:50.446-07:00Sadly, I don't have a boy at that reading leve...Sadly, I don't have a boy at that reading level yet, so I don't know what's out there.The Scarlet Tarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01799143168415937513noreply@blogger.com
