Hi,
DD will be 7 next month and has just discovered a love of books. She has recently started to read Narnia and we are looking for books of a similar level. We have an older DS and so I'm not familiar with girls books. One of my concerns is that whereas boys books seem to just be adventure based and fairly harmless, I am aware that girls books tend to be a bit more 'issue based'. Books aimed at her age are too easy for her (she got a Rainbow Fairy book out of the library at the weekend and read it in 30 mins when we got home) but books that are at her reading level, may well be too grown up. She showed an interest in Jacqueline Wilson books at the library, it I have concerns over them.
She has a lot of the classics at home which used to be mine along with a whole batch of Enid Blyton and Rohald Dahl. However, my mum wants to buy her a book as an Easter gift (rather than chocolate) and so I'm trying to find an option.
Can anyone recommend books that might be suitable for a 6/7 year old in terms of content, but still provide a challenge for her.
Thanks.
