Geronimo Stilton. About a 3rd grade reading level series of chapter books, but perfect for a young child. A mouse newspaper reporter has adventures. Sometimes referred to as the Italian Harry Potter as the books are so popular and printed in so many different languages. Plus - color pictures throughout the book and, my son's favorite, some words in the text use different colors and fonts to emphasize them.

If you have never seen them - go flip through one in the bookstore. You'll be hooked.
