Book recommendations for 6yo DS

Looking for books for 6yo DS. He is enjoying his encyclopaedias at the moment but has gone off stories and all our books suddenly feel too babyish.

They could be books to read himself or for me to read to him. His reading is pretty good. Looking for something with a few chapters maybe.

I have seen Bunny vs Monkey but don’t know if it’s suitable yet? Any other recommendations?

I'd recommend the adventuremice series - otter chaos is the first. They are short chapters but still have some illustrations and my son enjoyed them!

Dogman
Investigators
Mr Penguin
Bunny v Monkey I'd wait a year or so far.

Mine really liked the collections of short stories at this age
Stories for 6yos
Funny stories for 6yos
Magical stories for 6yos
You get the idea!

He liked that if one was a bit boring it would be finished quickly.
