Books for your 8 year old

[Luna9]

Hi. Just looking for books and stories for my 8 year old daughter to read and to read to her. She has finished some series that she liked like secret Kingdom but seems to want something different now. Any ideas?

My 8 yo DD devoured the Land of Stories series this summer - read these books twice, each.

Not heard of either of those, could you post the authors?
What about Worst Witch series by Jill Murphy.
How to train your dragon by Cressida Cowell.
Little house on the prairie by Laura ingalls Wilder.
The Indian in the cupboard by Lynne Reid banks.
The chronicles of Narnia by cs Lewis.

varjak Paw (and Varjak the outlaw) by SF Said - two of the best books I read to my DD this year.

Also the astrid Lindgren books. Currently reading The Brothers Lionheart, there's also Ronia the Robbers daughter ....

My 8 year old has recently been hooked by Caroline Lawrence's Roman Mysteries series (15 books so far - thank heavens for Book People!) and the chronicles of Narnia.

I've not heard of Secret Kingdom. Would you recommend?

My daughter also likes the Roman mysteries book.
Also we've or she's read these recently:
Swallows and Amazons by Arthur Ransome
carrie's War by Nina Bawden
the Peppermint pig by the same
Stink and Judy Moody books by Megan Macdonald
Tom Gates books
Little House on the prairie
The famous five books

Thank you very much for your recommendations; Will make a list and see which ones I can find

To add to the above:

Ottoline books
Goth Girl books
Harry Potter
Charlotte's Web
101 Dalmatians
Black Beauty

Really not sure about Roman mysteries for an 8 year old!! The first ones are fine, but the later ones have some very adult themes!!

DD seems glued to Enid Blyton - the adventure series, magic faraway tree, famous five etc.

All of above plus mine crazy about Percy Jackson... there are loads by that author. Will keep you going for ages
Adventure series by Helen moss is in manner of famous five etc

Books by Eva ibbotson

DD is 8, and has recently read/is currently reading:

Oh yes forgot about lemony snickett. Also spiderwock series.

Great Advice. Thank you very much
