My son (8 years old, 4th grade) is getting ready to start The Odyssey (Fagles translation) and then read The Iliad.
He read the Harry Potter series, the Percy Jackson series, the Heroes of Olympus series, and most recently the Fablehaven series...being interested in 'gods' type books he wants to read the Odyssey.
Are there any other series you would recommend (not necessarily about gods), that would be age AND level appropriate?
Also, are there any 'classics' that would be content appropriate for him?
Thanks!
