Re: Book recommendations

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?

Second the question/request from the girl perspective; also 2nd grade and advanced reader. Major Harry Potter fanatic, and reads the books after I've read them to her (we're currently working through Order of the Phoenix). Like Paisley's kid, plows through Magic Treehouse and the like in an afternoon. Currently reading the Little House books, which we read together a couple of years ago. Any suggestions much appreciated.
