Hi all
My 7yr old (nearly 8) DS has so little interest in reading.
He's ok at it (middle of the class) but just doesn't want to read for pleasure. While I'm not going to push him against his will, if I could get books he'd love it would be great.
We've tried Horrid Henry and Captain Underpants - both a bit too tricky. At a book fair he's bought Ninjago books and Beast Quest - both way too tricky. I've been looking online at David Walliams books and Mr Gum, but I think they're too hard as well.
He does sometimes read my younger DS's level 6 Kipper books voluntarily, which I'm happy with (because it means he's reading), but they don't keep him interested for long.
Please.... any recommendations???!!!
Thanks so much
