I'm finding it so hard to stay ahead of DD's needs! Help!
I've seen the last few threads of book recommendations, which were great, but we always need MORE!
She reads at about a 10yo level, and likes action / adventure / mystery / magic / science / history / excitement BUT nothing scary. Read Harry Potter and loved it but had a couple of nightmares.
Already read these series: Edward Eager, NIMH, Famous Five, Nick and Tesla, Time Warp Trio, Boxcar Children, Magic Tree House, the Saturdays, Narnia, all the Dahl's, all the Alice in Wonderland/Wizard of Oz/Peter Pan type classics. Way beyond Judy Moody/Geronimo/Beezus and Ramona stuff. Things like Heidi, Little Women, Anne of Green Gables are too slow-moving.
Next I'm going to try The Phantom Tollbooth, Last of the Really Great Whangdoodles and The Girl, the Dragon and the Wild Magic. Considered 39 Clues but too scary, and Swallows and Amazons, but too boaty.
Any other ideas? Long series and/or strong girl protagonists especially welcome
