I guess I've given up on my kids' reading habits, I let them read what they like because borrowing 100+ books from the library and losing them was driving me nuts. Anyway, my sons, 9 & 7 only want to read adult books now, so they read the Star Wars series. All of the ones they can get their hands on. They own about 20 or so, and borrow from the library (I only allow 5 at a time) and they re-read them. When they want a break from Star Wars, they read Harry Potter or Kids Almanacs (National Geographic and Time-they've practically memorized them). I think that the adult topics in Star Wars go over their heads (I really hope), because they only talk about the fighting. I'm trying to steer them to the classics, but haven't succeeded so far.
