Reading books for 8-10yr old

[longshot]

Wasn't sure where to post this really...

DD is an avid reader, she has been unwell for weeks with suspected long tail covid and one thing that has been good is her ability to read! Anyway she's gone through at least 20 books and I am running out of options.

She's 8 but reading age at least 9 maybe 10 really but obviously I also need the book to be suitable.

She has read most if not all of these already:

Harry Potter
David Walliams
Diary of Wimpy Kid
Tom gates
Enid Blyton
Roald Dhal
Michael Morpurgo (only kensukes kingdom and Kaspar)

Can anyone suggest any other good books or authors I can look at for her? I am looking for self reading so nothing too scary or i guess overly complicated as we would still read that with her. She also like humorous books or adventure tales.

My good 9yo reader is currently on Terry Pratchett, Arthur Ransome and Chalet School with a leavening of Football School, Violet Mackerel and Catherine Storr (especially the Clever Polly and the Stupid Wolf Ines). She’s has read and loved Percy Jackson, Lemony Snicket and Roman Mysteries and often re-reads them.

@Scarletoharaseyebrows I think The Boy at the Back of the Class has probably been the favourite this year - I'll definitely be reading it again next year. I was worried when I started reading it because when we did feedback at the end of the previous book their main complaint was that it was quiet long compared to books we'd read before, and I already knew The Boy at the Back of the Class was much longer!

DD loves the Murder Most Unladylike series.

Eva Ibbotson has written some lovely books for this age group. Jacqueline Wilson books accessible and deal with lots of feelings and issues involved in growing up.

Anne of Green Gables series, Little Women, Heidi, What Katie did, Mallory Towers series all stand the test of time

My dc moved onto Percy Jackson after Harry Potter and loved them.

Ali Sparkes Shapeshifter series is also a brilliant read, that is often overlooked.

Mr Gum
How to train your dragon
Cherub series? - not sure how much adventure tips over into scary, and you may want to vet the set-up first
Horrible Histories
second Skulduggery Pleasant (not his later series Demon Road, though - definitely not suitable!)

Anne Fine is always good but her demographic varies - Crummy Mummy and Me springs to mind for this age

The Bromeliad - Truckers, Diggers, Wings
Tiffany Aching series - Wee Free Men etc

Clever Polly and the Stupid Wolf
Mrs Pepperpot
Pippi Longstocking

actually, scrub Cherub - I'm pretty sure it gets all adolescenty very early on

Yes, Mr Gum has some great characters.

Also highly recommend the Treehouse books, the World of Norm and Middle School books are humorous too. Tom Gates books are popular with some of my DCs friends.

The Dribblesome Teapots
Last of the Dragons
Five Children and It et seq
The Treasure Seekers
A rag, a bone and a hank of hair
Ramona series
Charlotte's Web
The Demon Headmaster
The Exiles

Pippi longstocking
Malory towers
The case of the clockwork sparrow

The Belfry Witches

The magisterium series. My dd has liked them and so have the friends they've been loaned to

Anna James, anna Houghton, Robin Stevens, sophie Anderson, katherine rundell , eva Ibittson, juliet Forrest, kiran Millwood hargreaves, piers torday, l.d. lapinski.

The Ramona books by Beverley Cleary

I have no idea why they are not better known in the U.K. I loved them when I was 8, DD has just finished them, and also loved them. She’s 8.

Ramona books

At that age, as an avid reader, I loved Anne of Green Gables, the What Katy Did series, Lorna Doone, The Hobbit, Far From The Madding Crowd, Little Women, The Secret Garden, The Children if Green Knowe etc. There are some great old classics I reckon she would love!

Oh, and The Weirdstone of Brisingamen by Alan Garner. A little Harry Potter/Lord of the Rings type book. Never got round to reading the others of his - I may do now though!

Following

Wimpy Kid
Tom Gates

Another one I’ve remembered- the Land of Roar - DS10 and DS7 have both lived this. It’s about a fantasy world two twins have made up.

They loved it, not lived it - that would have been far too dangerous

What about famous five? DS has read 15 back to back in lockdown. Yes there are some crappy Enid Blyton references to gender and race, but we’ve used those as starting points for discussions about why those views are unacceptable.

Wonder is a lovely book which went down very well with my 9 year old.

The Secret Garden
The Railway Children
The Phoenix and the carpet
The family from one end street
Little Women
The children of Primrose Lane
Little house on the Prairie series
Narnia series
