My son is almost 9 and is a very good reader. His lexile range is 1250-1375. Last year when he was supposed to be reading in his range, it was nearly impossible to find anything that was interesting AND age appropriate. There were lots of choices that were one or the other, but not both.

He would also prefer to read graphic novels or light hearted funny books that are well, well below his appropriate reading level. We homeschool now, so I just let him. I figure that reading a little Wimpy Kid, Dragonbreath or Bone isn't going to destroy his abilities any more than me forcing him to read Mark Twain at 8 will!

If you need to find things, try the Scholastic Book Wizard and set it to lexile level. You can put in a book she liked and have it "find similar". http://www.scholastic.com/bookwizard/
