My daughter is 9 and not a big reader... I really want her to read more she hardly reads as it is... Anyone recommend any good children's authors for 9 year old girls!
I used to read famous five or Malory towers (God brings back memories!) probably out of date now though!

Daisy by Kes Gray? A bit young for a 9yo IMO.
David Baddiel books are funny.
The Lauren Child Ruby Redfort series if she likes mysteries.
Narnia books
Lemony Snicket are v easy to get into
Eva Ibbotsen, ,particularly Platform 13

If she's reluctant to read, would cartoon books be a good idea?
Hilda and the troll series by Luke Pearson are fab, great strong girl character
Zita the Space Girl
Asterix and Tintin are eternally popular.
