Hp replacement for keen 7 yo

[habibibibi]

My 7 year old has got hooked on Harry Potter. Shes read (and reread) the first three and loved them. We have the whole series at home because she has older siblings so she's picked this up herself rather than us suggesting it. Her siblings were quite a bit older when HP interested them so age suitability wasn't an issue.

Now I've reluctantly put my foot down about the goblet of fire and the rest of the HP books as I don't think the content is right for her age. Dd is angry with me as she just thinks it'll be more of the same of the previous 3.

Any books that are more suitable for her age that young HP enthusiasts might enjoy? Her reading level is very good but her understanding is still that of a 7 year old!

I also read hip replacement and am very relieved now

I’ll be honest, I wouldn’t censor apart from overtly adult books but then again I was reading Jane eyre/uncle toms cabin etc at that age, pure misery porn!

Another vote for Artemis Fowl.

Oh gosh and black beauty, more age appropriate but horrific, poor ginger ...what Katy did with the paralysed heroine...little women and Beth dying... all around that age, id let her finish Harry Potter as long as I was talking to her about it.

I second Ibbotson and The Secret of Platform 13 is likely to appeal in particular. All great though Eva Ibbotson

I only click on this thread to find out about the hip replacement but I can suggest Getting Rid of Aunt Edna by Frieda Hughes.

😂😂 Her reading comprehension is better than mine- I also read hip replacement!
