I'd love some inspiration for my 11 and 6 year old sons and 9 year old daughter.

11 year old has loved: Malorie Blackman, Wimpy Kid, David Walliams, Anthony Horowitz, Calvin and Hobbes

9 year old has loved: David Walliams, Judy Moody, Daisy and the Trouble With, some Jacqueline Wilson, Spy Dog, Lost Puppies/Kittens/Ponies

6 year old is Orange band and has read lots of Dr Seuss green back books and likes to listen to Roald Dahl, Horrid Henry, Guiness Book of Records
