He CAN read (level 8/9 ORT, and is an August-born Year 2 child, so I reckon that's OK...) but I seem to be struggling to find books that he will voluntarily pick up and read for himself.
We have LOADS of books (older DS1 is a complete bookworm) but so far the only things DS2 has shown any interest in are:
- Star wars DK readers
- A boxed set of 'Silly Stories'
Flat Stanley - nope
Astrosaurs - not really
Jack Stalwart - probably still a bit hard
Roald Dahl - likes us to read to him, but won't read himself....
Am I trying too hard? Or has anyone any ideas?
