This is a good thread. This is where I got the Percy Jackson tip.
JaneSmith, I agree about the series thing. We go through books like water. Love the used bookstore!
I haven't heard about the Tom Swift series, but will check it out. DS9 read Ender's Game over the summer and enjoyed it enough. We've also done the Angie Sage series Physik, Magyk, and Flyte as well as Harry Potter, both big hits with DS.
We are trying to get into some of the older classics as well...he read Tom Sawyer and thought it was okay. Maybe Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea...it's hard to find stand alone books!
