I was at the library today getting two of the books recommended in this thread (Other Side of the Mountain and Julie of the Wolves) and I saw the Black Stallion books. I used to LOVE those, but I passed on them today because I thought maybe they were "girl" books? Not that I care, but I want to pick stuff my kids will read. Do boys typically enjoy the Black Stallion books?
BTW- there was only one book on Greek mythology in the library. I think the popularity of Percy Jackson has created a run.
My younger son also loves the Wimpy Kid books. It bugs me a little - but they are FUNNY!
