ElizabethN, DS will have to fight me for the computer to read Sluggy Freelance, it's fantastic! Thanks & I'll look at the others for DD7.

suevv, DS has read the Lightning Thief and is sloooowly reading Sea of Monsters. I agree they're too good to go with the graphic versions, but he's really liking the Greek mythology so I'll try the O'Connor series and the others. Thanks for the recommendations.

DeeDee, how could I have forgotten Asterix?! I loved those books. Thanks for reminding me.
