Any top hints for lovely books for 6-8 year old readers? Looking for gifts for DD and friends. Either special picture books or ones they can read to themselves. (e.g. Story Orchestra was a hit last year, “Daisy and the Trouble with…” series also going down well.). All and any suggestions welcome. Thank you!
MNHQ Update
This is an old thread, but if you’ve come across it while searching for book recommendations for your child, our guide to the best books for eight-year-olds has been recently updated to reflect current availability and new releases. It includes a wide range of tried, tested and approved-by-Mumnsetters recommendations, from classic tales to the latest five-star reads. We hope it’s helpful!
