My son doesn’t read at all anymore 😢 he really loves history, particularly world war 2, can anyone think of anything that will entice him to read?!

I'm a high school librarian and Phil Earle's When The Sky Falls has been an absolute winner for us this year and would tick the boxes for you.

We got my 13 yo DS a subscription to a history magazine for Christmas last year, that went down really really well. He is obsessed with history and read and re-read every magazine. He will never touch a book!
