Looking for a new "Chapter Book"

Have just finished reading the Enchanted Wood to my almost 5yo DS.
Would definitely like to try another chapter book but need a break from Moonface et al.
He really likes the Horrid Henry cartoons on TV but I fancied reading something a bit more tasteful Smile
Any ideas?

What about the Little House on the Prairie series? Laura Ingalls Wilder.

We are reading those currently - DDs are 8 but I think they would have liked them at 5 also. They are lovely stories.

If you are animal lovers then Gobbolino the Witches Cat is a great 'chapter' story.

We read "Wind in the Willows" when my ds was about that age. He loved it.
Now reading Famous Five which he also loves.
He is 7 now

I guess you've tried the Roald Dahls?

Anne Fine's Jamie and Angus stories are good.
