Another Enid Blyton fan here. DD has worked her way through Famous Five, Secret Seven and Malory Towers. She also enjoys Roald Dahl, David Walliams and Jacqueline Wilson, especially the Hetty Feather books.

[serendipity1980]

DS loves reading Diary of a Wimpy Kid series- he finds them very funny. He's just discovered Famous Five and Secret Seven, to my delight because I loved them as a child. Roald Dahl is a favourite too, although he hasn't read these recently.

[Gazelda]

DD is loving the Nancy Drew Mysteries. She loves a good clue-fest and has been a scooby doo fan for years. She likes the strong girl characters in Nancy Drew.

The first series my now 9 year old got into was Rainbow Magic a few years ago. Now she is into Jacqueline Wilson and Roald Dahl. I haven't managed to convince her to try Enid Blyton yet

[cmsconfused]

My 7 year old adores the goosebumps books. He's always had a fascination with monsters and it feeds his very vivid imagination!!

[lljkk]

I wish my 8yo would read for pleasure. We're lucky if he reads anything besides The Beano.

[clopper]

Favourites here are
Tom Gates series
Percy Jackson
Middle school series
Wimpy Kid
Michael Morpurgo (running wild etc)
David Walliams books
Jacqueline Wilson books (especially the earlier ones)
The enemy series (zombie related)

[JakeBallardswife]

Dd aged 9 loves the treehouse books, she'd love her own set! She's read two of them, just finished the second one.

Also reading ruby redfort, and likes Michael morpurgo, Tom gates books.

DS- 12 likes Artemis fowl and Percy Jackson

[Loreleigh]

My daughter loved The Chronicles of Narnia series and some of the Enid Blyton series like The Magic Faraway Tree as she was attracted to the idea of strange and interesting places and people - she used to make up stories for herself, inventing new lands and habitats, and then poplulate them with all sorts of crazy characters, including animals and made-up individuals/tribes etc!

[cathisherwood]

The boys love the Wimpy kid series but we are also fans of Harry Potter and all still love the old favourites too like The Faraway Tree series by Enid Blyton

[cornflakegirl]

DS1 loved Mr Gum and How to train your dragon. He has recently been reading the Mind Warp series by Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell, which he has really enjoyed.
DS2 loves the Dinkin Dings series by Guy Bass.

[techywife]

My son loves the Wimpy Kid books and anything Beano related. He has read the first two Treehouse books and loved them! My daughter was found in bed this morning reading her Rainbow Fairies collection. I love seeing my children become little bookworms like their Mummy! Reading is so important 📖📚

[SuzCG]

My eldest (right age for this series) was absolutely mad on the Horrible History series - there was a stage when a thought he would never read anything else... A while ago he went through a Tom Gates phase but at present he is madly into the Harry Potter books. He is currently reading them for the third time round.
This has led to his younger sister starting the Harry Potter books - she did really well with the first one and has now started number two. Up to this point she has been a really broad reader and hasn't got addicted to any series. I hope this continues!

[5BlueHydrangea]

We are currently working our way through the Roald Dahl books which dd2 loves. So much great Roald Dahl stuff around at the moment too so it's perfect.
Also reading the David Walliams books after seeing Gangsta Granny on TV, then at the theatre. We have the book but are currently in the middle of Mr Stink!

Didn't know there were Hetty Feather books, dd loved the TV series, will track them down!

[Mumalade]

My children love the 'Joey Pigza' series (by Jack Gantos). About a boy with ADHD - laughter and tears throughout!

Completely banned Jacqueline Wilson - same story every time, stroppy misunderstood kids!!!

[Anj123]

My daughter loves reading the Chocolate Box girls series by Cathy Cassidy and all the Dork Diary books by Rachel Renee Russell

[thesoupdragon44]

My son loves reading a series of books as then he can follow a character and likes the way the stories change. He has loved Harry Potter, as we all do, but a new favourite is the Urban Outlaw series and now the young james bond.

[OSETmum]

The collections DS (7) loves are:
Harry Potter
Oliver Moon
Five Find Outers
Magic Treehouse
Horrid Henry
Roald Dahl
David Walliams ( not sure there last 2 are collections or just books by the same author)

It sounds like he'd love these Treehouse books!

[Rajie]

My son loves The Diary of a Wimpy Kid series. He also likes Timmy Failure and Big Nate books. Of late has a passion for Michael Morpugo and the books by David Walliams.

[WingDefence]

My DS (8) loves the Bear Grylls series of books, Roald Dahl and used to read the Mr Gum books too. He likes page turners that are full of excitement but also likes to read funny books that make him laugh.

We're always interested in discovering new books and would love to win!
