He can plow through one in an evening. We have the Harry Potter books, and he loves them, but an 800 pg book is probably too much for him to tackle on his own. Anyone have ideas for something somewhere in the middle?
Do kids still read stuff like the Hardy Boys? I loved the Bobsey Twins, Nancy Drew, Little House on the Prairie, etc. when I was a kid, because there was always another book.

I also remember loving Encyclopedia Brown and the Ramona the Pest series for the same reason.

Note: I am old.
