My 6 year old son has read all the 16 Tashi books, soduku and the thousand paper cranes, roald dahl the magic finger.
I was planning to borrow captain underpants but not sure if it will make my son naughty.

I need ideas of what kind of chapter books to get.He likes the above kind of books. So something similar will be good.

Dd really loved How to Train Your Dragon. The books are much better than the films or TV series.
She also liked the Percy Jackson books.
