These are her recommendations. Some I've read, so I have not.
My kids love to read and be read to.
We try to hit the library about once a week. (There is one about 5 min. from our house.)
So, it's always good to have new ideas.

My 7 year old has gone through the Magic Tree House and Junie B. Jones series. Now he's onto Beast Quest, but he doesn't have many more of those left. We'll need a new series soon.
Are there any books or series that you recommend?

My 2nd-3rd grader is loving the series " the Land of Droon". I'd recommend those!
ReplyDeleteMany of my third and fourth grade students STILL love the Magic Tree House books! :) Other series they like are A to Z Mysteries, The Secrets of Droon, Boxcar Children, Warriors, and Percy Jackson (HUGE this year in my classroom).
ReplyDeleteHappy Reading! ;)
Diary of a Whimpy Kid is great.
ReplyDeleteThere is one that is Judy Moody's Brother that is cute I can't remember the name of the book but same author...
My son is going into 2nd grade and loves Diary of a Wimpy Kid. Counting down the days until the next one comes out. He also really likes The Magic School Bus series and Nate the Great books.
