Just that really!

I'm getting the my DD age 10 the Murder Most unladylike books. Lacking inspiration for others for her and my DS12. Any ideas? He loved The 1000 year old boy. Really funny

ooh... I have a teen suggestion but my 10yo barely reads, sigh. He'll read David Walliams but most MNer children seem to finish those before end yr1.

10yo DD loved Jacq Wilson books, still.

Mine are getting a bit old for David Walliams but it's become a thing where one grandparent or another will send the latest in the post so they still enjoy it. DS is reading the latest one, Ice Monster as he borrowed it off a friend.

Dd2 Various Chalet School fill ins that she hasn't read, and a couple of Dimsie books

My dd who is nearly 10 has just discovered the Babysitters club series. They now do them as graphic novels which she really likes. She has also read the Geek Girl series back to back in the last couple of months.

Great, a few ideas to check out there thanks. DD has got Letters from the Lighthouse
