A year ago I posted about my very reluctant reader (ds) who found reading a chore. Thanks to the help I got, he has gone from Captain Underpants to Alex Ryder within a short time, and reads about 5 books a week. So we are delighted but broke.
My next challenge is dd who is 8. She may be easier to break, as is more interested in books in general, but nothing can mesmerise her in the way the Wimpys or Tom Gates did for ds at a similar stage.
Has anyone any suggestions? She loves ponies, and will read non fiction more readily than fiction. Still loves me to read to her...
