First non picture book to read to my 4yo son

Hi

With Christmas coming I'd like to buy my 4yo son a non picture book I can read to him at bedtimes.

Does anyone have any recommendations?

Given his age, I'm guessing I need something with chapters that aren't too lengthy and would keep him engaged.

Any ideas?

Thanks :-)

Flat Stanley is good - and if he likes them there are lots of them now. Roald Dahl also fun to read but I would avoid The Witches and The BFG unless you have a fairly robust four year old. Winnie-the-Pooh is nice for this age, and possibly even The Wind in the Willows. Pippi Longstocking and My Naughty Little Sister also went down well at four and are nice and gentle for bedtimes.
