Kulipari series by TJ Pryce (i think) was so fun! Here Be Monsters by Alan Snow. My son is second grade and loves the red sox so I read to him The Prince of Fenway Park. It had a lot of deeper social themes I wasn’t expecting… we loved it.
Also the Penderwicks series. It follows sisters but there are great boy characters too, and the girls personalities are also unique and really well developed. My sons both love all the books.
Septimus Heap series by Angie Sage,The Chronicles of the Imaginarium Geographica series by James A Owen, The Boy Sherlock Holmes series by Shane Peacock, Fablehaven series by Brandon Mull
Also I should mention Inheritance Cycle by Christopher Paolini. My brother who’s in 4th grade is reading it and really enjoying it. If a fourth grader can read and understand it, I’m pretty sure a 5th grader can read it too.
My son is in 5th grade. I got him the Eragon series, he has FNAF books, manga, Mouseheart trilogy, and I’m working on getting him all of the Goosebumps books.
That’s awesome! I have three brothers and two of them sort of like to read. One of them is reading my copy of Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson. And the other is buddy reading Paolini’s books with my dad. My other brother is preparing for a church mission so he doesn’t have time to read sadly.
I haven’t read Mistborn yet, I found a box set of the first three for like 18 bucks though, so I was pretty excited about that. I’ve also never read the Eragon series, maybe I should buddy up with my son, since they’re so long, maybe it’ll help him get through them.
My fourth and sixth grade sons love the Warrior Cats series, the Janitors series, Harry Potter (a bit obsessively), Percy Jackson, The Mysterious Benedict Society (and following books).
Gulliver’s Travels. Swiss Family Robinson. Willy Wonka’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Charlotte’s Web. Matilda. Just a few favorites from when I was a 5th grader ?
My son loves all the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books, The Last Kids on Earth books are good and if he likes Star Wars Guardians of the Wills is good
Percy Jackson, Harry Potter
School for Good & Evil Series
My son loves Warriorcats
R.J.Palacio : Wonder

He was never really into reading, so I’m excited he’s getting into it finally!

Eragon and Fablehaven made our 5th grader (at the time) fall in love with reading!!!
Diary of a wimpy kid … Its an amazing series witg cartoon diary on iy

Diary of wimpy kid is best option to start woth … And goose bumps books
Warriors? They’re books about cats. My 8 year old nephew read them.
Fablhaven series, the Beyonders series and anything by the author Brandon Mull
These were two of my sons favorite books at that time.
He is 16 now and wants me to hold on to them in the attic so he can pass them to his kids.
My grandson loved Fablehaven!
