I second the Tamora Pierce suggestion. Also definitely Gregor the Overlander! Suzanne Collin's lesser known series (she wrote Hunger Games). I recently finished reading (it's a 5-book series) and it was FANTASTIC. Just amazing. It's a YA series. The House of the Scorpion is also great, might be for your stronger readers. Eragon series is fun, and Dealing with Dragons is still one of my all-time favorite dragon books/series. Bruce Coville is a great author, and his work might be a little young but it's good to have a mix. I absolutely loved everything of his I have read, but especially Aliens Ate My Homework and the rest of that series. Most of these will appeal to the young men, hopefully.



When I was a young lady, I read pretty much anything, but I know a lot of boys like books with a boy main character. I really was a bit horse crazy, so here's some you might look into for your young ladies. The Saddle Club is a very long series about 3 girls and their horse-y adventures. It was really fun and it's great to find longer series because, if they like the first one, there's a lot to enjoy. (Oh a thought - you could always get the first one in a series, then just tell them to get the rest from the library or something, if there's budget concerns) I also liked the Thoroughbred Series and the wonderful Marguerite Henry horse books, especially the famous Misty of Chincoteague but really any of her books is a good read. My all time favorite horse series was and still is The Black Stallion by Walter Farley. Oh, how I loved that book.


There's a Boy in the Girl's Bathroom was fantastic the first time I read it, and I also like the "Wayside School" books which are both by Louis Sachar. Judy Blume is fun as is Beverly Cleary. Redwall gets a lot of kids into reading, you also might consider some high-level comics/graphic novels to reach a different audience. The Hobbit Graphic Novel has great illustration and I loved reading it so much when I found it one day in a store.


I found history pretty boring so avoided those books but I did enjoy The King's Swift Rider about Robert the Bruce and Scotland, might be the only vaguely historical book I remember reading around those ages. I tried to avoid mystery books more or less, but I loved Encyclopedia Brown (even though according to Amazon it's for younger ages). I enjoyed Harriet the Spy she was a pretty cool girl role-model at the time. My Side of the Mountain was absolutely fantastic and such a great adventure, though I enjoy everything Jean Craigshead George writes. I feel like Julie of the Wolves is pretty standard reading material, maybe not anymore, but what a great story. Oh my gosh, I just about forgot The Indian in the Cupboard, that was such a good story. Anything Roald Dahl is wonderful as is Jane Yolen, I especially recommend the Pit Dragon trilogy. The Golden Compass, So You Want to be A Wizard, Animorphs, Goosebumps, Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark, Kiki Strike, Dinotopia, Song of the Gargoyle and The City of Ember.


I am sure that is way more than you need, but my mind started racing. It was hard to stop once I started -- thank you for that enjoyable tour through my past. Lots of great memories of time spent reading. Hope you find some of this helpful, at least.

    Sorry for the incredibly long list but all of these books are freaking phenomenal! I think they're all YA (young adult) but that shouldn't stop anyone from reading these treasures! I thought I'd link each title to Amazon so that you could read the description of the book!


    Books 1, 2 & 3 by J.H. Trumble were some of the first LGBT themed books I'd ever read and absolutely loved them! The three books don't necessarily have to be read in that order but some of the characters, if I remember correctly, from the first and second book are mentioned later down the line. Reading it in order might make it a bit more cohesive!


    4 & 5 by Bill Konigsberg feature two amazing characters that really shine and in due time you'll want to reach inside the pages of the book and force them to be happy together yourself!


    6 & 7 were fairly quick reads. Definitely enjoyable. There are more books in the series that I've yet to have read.


    8 is another book by Bill Konigsberg. It's about two kids who go on a road trip to find a family member. It's not as LGBT-themed necessarily as the others but it has a nice chunk of LGBT history in the third act that makes it's a really worthwhile read in that it makes you feel closer to the characters!


    9, 10 and 11. Jesus. These books will stay with you for ages. I swear. They're so damn good and incredibly well written! Adam Silvera knows how to write a good story and intriguing characters that will stay engraved in your memory days, weeks, and months (for me) after you've read them. These three books could be read in any order as the characters in each book are different. 10 was really good but in my opinion 9 and 11 are much better because the characters were way more memorable.


    12 was a really enjoyable read. The main character, Alek, is in summer school and befriends a kid named Ethan. They have totally different interests and personalities but they fit together like puzzle pieces! Alek also has a friend named Becky who has some great comedic lines.


    13 had its hot and heavy moments, that's for sure! In this book Mike is coming to terms with his sexuality and has a funny group of friends, plus it had some hilarious moments where I just couldn't help but bust out laughing!


    14 is a supernatural themed book with it's tiny share of LGBT moments. The supernatural element and overall story is really fascinating! It was a good book!


    The last book I read was the same as yours, Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda! It was SO good and I was really left wondering once it started reaching the end! I hope you get what I mean as that's all I'll say so that I don't spoil it for anyone who hasn't read it yet!
    Over the years that I've read all of these books each one has made me long for what each of the characters had with the other character that they loved so dearly. They've all left a lasting impression on me, some definitely more than others, and I am always looking forward to reading more. I just got back from the library today with a couple more LGBT themed books and can't wait to read them! If any of them really stand out I'll let you know!!
u/autumnfalln · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

Mischief Managed! =D (All of this is seriously making me so giddy!)

  1. I know alcohol is banned on RAOA campus, but Butterbeer isn't! Now I don't have to traipse all the way to Rogsmead Village to get my hands on this delicious stuff. I can simply enjoy it by the comfort of my common room fire while I diligently study for my classes. =)

  2. The riddle, without its "hair," is simply a stick. And what is a stick but a weapon for self defense, really? You know what else is great for self defense? Pepper spray. Pepper spray is great for self defense, especially when you're walking around the dark RAOA castle and grounds at night. I mean, the attackers will be expecting a defense spell, but they won't be expecting pepper spray to the eyeballs!

  3. Technically, not the answer, but some think that it is. I sorta think it is. I mean it sits on the same place, serves the same function. I especially love this one- I mean, look at the beautiful color! Perfect for keeping me warm on those chilly winter days at the RAOA castle (on off-uniform days of course ;D ).

  4. Well, according to my school supply list for RAOA School, I'm supposed to have these two items. Luckily for me, they come in a two-for-one price pack, which is great for us students! This is essentially the riddle, as well, so yes, boring, but it's required! ;D

  5. The riddle is, at its essence, a place to store and sometimes transport things. Currently, I am lacking a place to store and transport cupcakes. I'm getting more serious regarding my baking, and I hate it when my cute little cupcakes that I worked so hard on get ruined on the way to my birthday pal's common room. =( This special case would be amazing for storing, transporting, and delivering my nummy cupcakes around the RAOA castle!

  6. The riddle is related to superheroes, yes? Well one of my favorite superheroes is Chell from Portal. She's not a superhero, you say? Well, I beg to differ? I mean seriously, just look at all she went through and what she accomplished. She's a superhero to me, anyway. It would be amazing to wear her super awesome long fall socks underneath my uniform robes! Not only are they just plain awesome, but they'll keep my feet warm around the drafty RAOA castle. =)


    And again, thank you sooooo much for this! I'm so excited about all this Potterness!
u/kittytella · 2 pointsr/sleeptrain

We would usually break a day down as such when she was 3/4 months (wikka wikka waaa....get it? break it down?.....the sleep regression hit me hard.)

wake: 6AM

Feed boob.

play on mat for about 40 min so I could pump. Don't bother to change out of PJs but do take off owlet and sleep sack.

(Her awake window at 3/4 months was about an hour and a half, but in the morning I found it best to put her down within an hour. )

6:40AM offer boob. Then change diaper and do quick stretches as the music and physical movement signals nap is upon us. Then put on owlet and back into sleep sack, then we head on over to her crib/ bassinet (I had my husband build the crib in our bedroom halfway through 4 months because she is a LONG baby and grew out of the Halo). we turn on the night light and owlet, then read The Going to Bed Book EVERY time - again same sounds lets her know it is nap time - then i have a short song I hum while rocking her into the crib (like 20 - 30 seconds) where lights go out and turn on the sound machine at the end.... I'm out. Takes all of 10 minutes from start to finish if she doesn't want to eat.

(we do this still at 6 months. same routine - works like a bloody charm. No matter where I am if I do it she will nap with no tears 9/10 times.)

The key is to start the nap routine and put baby down BEFORE their unique wake window is closed. An overtired baby will not go down on their own, or without a fight.

8:30AM wake and boob. Time to change diaper and put on some real clothes! Then we do our SparkBabies activities for the day.

9:30AM Offer boob - then nap routine commences. Diaper change, clothing change back to PJs, stretches - move over to crib, turn on Owlet and night light, read same book and hum a little tune sound machine on and out goes the lights by 9:50 so they have time to fuss it out a bit or just chill to sleep by 10AM.

11:00AM Boob and change back out of PJs.

12:00 NOON Offer boob - you know the drill now. Out by 12:20

1:30 PM Wake up and boob it - change and go play!

2:30 PM Offer boob - nap it out by 2:50 PM!

4:00 PM Wake up wake up it's time to boob, chhhhhhhaaange...and play!

4:30 PM Cluster feeding begins...offer boob.

5:00 PM Offer boob and nap it out by 5:30 PM.

6:00 PM Awake and change, time to boob it out and play! Offer boob whenever fussy from here on out!

7:00 PM Bedtime routine starts.

I set everything up beforehand - but we begin with a bath with some nice lullaby music (instrument only) with minimal play - this is soothing, but fun times. Then I bring her back to her change table where we dry off, get some lotion on, put on her owlet and onesie/sleep sack. You want dim lighting for everywhere but the bath. Then I go to the bed (her crib/bassinet was beside me) where it is DARK except for a very dim night light and nurse her while quietly reading Harry Potter. I nurse her last personally so she gets a full feed, but the trick is I am so terrible at transferring her to her crib/ bassinet I always wake her up. You want to MAKE SURE baby is not totally asleep before putting them to bed. Hold them in seated position 5 minutes after finishing boob and gently rocking them back and forth (like....as if you were rocking in a seated position) is a good way to gently rouse them a but, as well as get gas out. Then put them down drowsy but awake, turn on sound machine and peace.

​

It takes time....each nap and bedtime give it 5 minutes before going back in, or do 10 or 15 if you feel like that works better for you. The first night she fussed/cried for 9 minutes. Now she goes out on her own in 3 minutes or less, and puts herself back to sleep when she wakes (unless really hungry, we're not night weaning). We're down to 3 naps a day at 6 months, I know when she sleeps and so does she - it took a long time to get here but you can. It's totally possible!

​

Good luck!

u/eileensariot · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

I have never heard of the books you've mentioned, but I will list some books I loved growing up. I hope these fit the level you are looking for.

There's a boy in the girls bathroom

Indian in the cupboard

Danny Champion of the World (husband's suggestion)

The Phantom Tollbooth, although I'm happy to help as I can. You didn't need a contest <3

High five for reading!!!

Goosebumps if you are ok with those/ he is old enough.

side note: I was just looking at my old book collection and found my favorite bookmark ever. Your contest changed my world!

u/xDesolate · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

Sorry to hear about your dad and court. I can understand that struggle because my daughter while have to go through that her whole life. Yeah! She loves all kinds of monsters. She has this book (which its good for adults too) I have a bunch of other monster/zombie books on my list I'm going to get her soon. She is such a lover of books and monsters! Haha! She really liked Coraline as well! (which of course I did) She also likes Corpse Bride. But she liked Coraline more because of the button eyes..she has those Lalaloopsey dolls (they have button eyes) and she calls one Coraline. Haha!

u/MsZombiePuncher · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

Every book in The Guardians of Ga'hoole Series, which is about an owl society on the bring of war. Teaches a lot of moral and life lessons, but in the disguise of owls. I loved this series as a child.


Matilda, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach, Fantastic Mr. Fox, and any other book written by Roald Dahl. Just a warning for The Witches (although I couldn't find it in Kindle Format), it really spooks some children. I tried to read it to my little cousins and it just outright scared them. Although they are skiddish in the first place.


The Tale of Despereaux, Which is a book about a mouse (Desperaux) who goes on a quest to save a human princess. Great book.


The Diary of a Wimpy Kid series, I'm not sure if this is too old for him or not, but it's super cute. And a real boy book too.


If he hasn't read them yet, every Dr. Seuss book ever.


Ella Enchanted, absolutely loved this one too. I re-read it countless times when I was younger.


The Phantom Tollbooth, which is just another great book!

u/wordjockey · 2 pointsr/books

The only books I have from my youth are The Very Hungry Caterpillar and The Judge: an Untrue Tale. This reflects my mothers interest more than my own.

I fondly remember The King, the Mice, and the Cheese.

As a parent, I have to go with Goodnight Gorilla and Morris the Moose. Morris is a great one to do voices for, and very funny when your kid hits the right age. Too Many Frogs is also a great one if you enjoy doing voices.

u/destinyisntfree · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

At the risk of sounding really cheesy, what I am most grateful for in my life is my children. They are constantly a source of awe and inspiration. Particularly, my youngest is autistic and is a source of inspiration because she teaches me every day to not give up. She has to work so much harder to do things other kids her age do, and yet she never gives up. My oldest, who is almost 11, has given up a lot of things for his sisters, and he teaches me every day that it is better to be selfless and do for others because the return of a smile on someone else's face is worth everything in the world. My middle child, 8, has had to go through a lot of changes in her life this year, and she has taught me that it is okay to be afraid, as long as you keep going.

My boy's 11th birthday is coming up and This is on his wishlist, and is under 5 and prime eligible. OF course, stitchinbitchin loves me and everyone else here on RAOA.

u/BookWormery · 3 pointsr/whatsthatbook

Ha, I have such a vague but mouth-watering memory of this book... definitely read it and imagined that amazing burger, even though at the time I'd barely ever eaten one.

Looks like it's The Perfect Hamburger, bizarrely by Alexander McCall Smith!

The set I have looks like this one and it has all of the notes and drawings from Harry, Ron, and Hermione. The set only has Fantastic Beasts and Quidditch Through the Ages. I got the Beedle the Bard separately.

From what I've seen, it looks like the new Illustrated Fantastic Beasts is really nice and you may consider getting that.

u/bookchaser · 2 pointsr/books
  1. The King, the Mice and the Cheese. Every kid wanted it from the school library. I got in trouble when it got lost on my bookshelf and incurred late fees. Yes, my school had late fees.

  2. Fahrenheit 451 and The Technicolor Time Machine. I'm not actually much of a reader. TTTM my SF-obsessed father gave me to read and it's the first full regular non-school book I read. Then I read F451 because the title interested me in seeing it on his bookshelf.

    As an adult:

  3. Danny the Champion of the World for the absolutely wonderful father-son relationship. Most children's books present parents as adversaries. I remember my mother reading it to me as a child.

  4. The Harry Potter series, reading it to my daughter. The series is absolutely packed with wonderful messages for children.
u/iamnotfromtexas90 · 2 pointsr/trees

reminds me of my favorite book cloudy with a chance of meatballs. best book as a kid. and even better at a [6]

u/radagasthebrown · 2 pointsr/books

The Ender's Game series, especially the later books(speaker, children, xeno). Something about the whole nature of Philotics struck me as a really attractive idea. I'm not saying I believe we're all connected by an invisible web of thought. But the idea that we are all connected is something that I've always held and Card's description of philotics was a great way for me to visualize that connection we all share.

EDIT: remembered another from 2nd grade. But fuck this is why i love google too, just typed 'book where the kids rename the pen' and it found it, top result. The book is called Frindle and if there's one book that helped shape my outlook on life its that book. It taught me that words are just words. They can be the most powerful things on the planet, but when you boil it down a word isn't actually a thing. A word is an idea, and you can make an idea mean anything you want it to.

For those interested:

Plenty of good places around the Web I'm sure! That's the magic of e-commerce for you- I'm sure Amazon has such collections readily available.

If you can't afford the entire collection, there's also this five-set collection of Goosebumps books. Comes with the original, classic 90s covers too! https://www.amazon.com/Goosebumps-25th-Anniversary-Retro-Set/dp/1338149083/ref=pd_lpo_sbs_14_img_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=WYNGFT659MYPAWCJZBHX

u/sovietmudkipz · 7 pointsr/videos

At this point anime has transcended its original meaning. It denotes a particular style as well as the fact that it's a cartoon. Sure, literally anime === cartoon === anime, but if you say "cartoon" to someone they'll have a completely different conception that if you say "anime" to that same person.

Try it for yourself: make a list of 3 items that you would consider cartoons, then make a list of 3 items that you would consider anime. What are the differences? What are the similarities?

Also consider: word meanings can change by how they're used. This is the means by which languages evolve and why you aren't speaking Ye Olde English today. A great introductory book on the subject would be Andrew Clement's Frindle.

u/anywaybye · 2 pointsr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

I used to love The Stinky Cheese Man and Other Fairly Stupid Tales when I was younger. Always enjoyed it.

I recently read The X-Files: Earth Children Are Weird and I thought it was a good picture book. The author also has picture books aimed at kids for E.T. and Home Alone and next year is releasing Back to the Future. The pictures are great.

There are also a bunch of scattered issues that will probably be collected into a trade eventually. 2 are 1-shots from the original series. And there is currently a new series that has 6 issues.

Also if you don't mind digital copies of the first two volumes you can get them here for even cheaper

I had this book as well! Although my favorite was this one. Hours spent reading these from cover to cover. :)

Spider-man: The Ultimate Guide by Cynthia O'Neill et al. http://www.amazon.com/dp/078947946X/ref=cm_sw_r_udp_awd_vy.etb130ZCVA

Oh God, I read this as a kid too! It was definitely a book, and I really remember how good they said the burgers were. Coud it be this? http://www.amazon.co.uk/The-Perfect-Hamburger-Young-Puffin/dp/0140316701

It was a bit under $50 with tax and free shipping from Amazon. Here are the titles:

The Answer

Guide to the Crystal Gems

Too Cool for School

Steven Universe Vol. 1

Steven Universe Vol. 2

It is not a book. Or well, not a story book.

['Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find'] (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fantastic_Beasts_and_Where_to_Find_Them) was released in 2001 with most of the proceedings made going to charity. It was released with an accompanying book 'Quidditch through the ages'. But neither of these books are story books. FBAWTF is a mock-up of the text book that Harry uses in the books and just gives some basic information on a lot of magical creatures. Quidditch through the ages is similar, except it is focused on quidditch history, game play, all of that.

I loved the Artemis Fowl books. They're easier than Harry Potter, probably a little easier than Percy Jackson.

Other suggestions:

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory and other Roald Dahl books

A Series of Unfortunate Events

Diary of a Wimpy Kid books

The Phantom Tollbooth

u/derefnull · 4 pointsr/harrypotter

Both Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them as well as Quidditch Through the Ages are available in paperback form. They even sell them on Amazon.

u/berktree · 4 pointsr/stevenuniverse

The original run of comics (by Jeremy Sorese and Coleman Engle) ran for 8 issues. They are compiled in these TPBs: Vol 1 Vol 2

There was also a Greg Universe one-shot in the same series (probably my favorite of all the comics). That's available here

The more recent series, Steven Universe and the Crystal Gems, ran for 4 issues. They aren't available in a volume yet, only individual issues. Issue 1 is here, and this is the upcoming paperback.

There's also a standalone graphic novel.

This was one of my favourite books as a kid. Now all they have to do is make a film out of Red is Best.

Some things don’t match, but your description reminds me of “Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs” by Judi Barrett

Magic Treehouse books are for even younger grades, so I wouldn't increase the difficulty level too fast unless he wants it that way. Almost anything by Roald Dahl (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, James and the Giant Peach, etc) or Diary of a Wimpy Kid might be a good next step. There's the Wishbone and Goosebumps series too.

He also illustrated an adorable children's book called Zombie In Love.

u/spdrman8 · 2 pointsr/blunderyears

Buy the Mavel encyclopedia(s).

One

And sometimes they have one for specific characters.

TWO

u/Divergent99 · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

What about RL Stine books or goosebumps books? Goosebumps are a little lower reading level so that might be more appropriate right now.. Here is one that includes 4 Goosbumps books

Thanks for the contest!

According to Amazon, looks like it's out a little earlier too, August 15th as opposed to the 29th stated there.

u/siphillis · 2 pointsr/StarVStheForcesofEvil

"The Emotionary" is a real book, for anyone curious.

u/KittenAnne · 1 pointr/Random_Acts_Of_Amazon

The phantom Tollbooth.

I am going to offer the first books of a few series because I know with my daughter who use to hate to read and is just now realizing she likes it - does so much better with series than standalone because she gets more invested in the characters.

There is the Warriors

There is also the wimpy kid

There is the classic Narnia books

Of course I linked the first book in each of the series so he can see if he likes them before you get to many.

u/biglebowski55 · 9 pointsr/beyondthebump

We've got A LOT of Sandra Boynton. They're not all winners, but there are a lot more hits than misses. The Going to Bed Book and One, Two, Three! are favorites around here. Kiddo is also 18 months.

u/SIESTA_FIESTA · 1 pointr/GoosebumpsBooks

You can still find them on eBay and Amazon. They will be releasing a 2ND edition redo can on October 5th.

They ARE fucking it up.

THIS is the illustration style.

Dammit.

u/happyhooker485 · 1 pointr/stevenuniverse

Is there anything in the previews about an bound volume of all 4 set to come out in December? I saw this on Amazon.

Without a doubt [this] (http://www.amazon.com/Classic-Goosebumps-Night-Living-Dummy/dp/0545035171/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC?ie=UTF8&colid=EYB47AJ077Y1&coliid=I2GUJ2J4E9I1M8) Goosebumps #1 book. I think Goosebumps carry a nostalgic meaning with all of us and will always bring back the feels of being a kid again. Im 20 years old and I would read all of them over again! Though,it doesnt say shipping cost :(

The service does include audiobooks but it doesn't seem to include every book in Unlimited with an audiobook. Going by the press releae where they state over 600,000 books while only saying "thousands of audiobooks from Audible," I guess the selection of audiobooks is way lower.

Life of Pi says Kindle Unlimited with Narration while this book

http://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B005CRQ4OW/ref=s9_al_bw_g351_i4?pf_rd_m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&pf_rd_s=center-2&pf_rd_r=1BRBW556PGAYC8D59SJN&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=1865398662&pf_rd_i=9578129011

only shows Kindle Unlimited. My guess with narration means audiobook available.

u/shield_agent · 3 pointsr/stevenuniverse

I've only read Steven Universe & The Crystal Gems and I really enjoyed it. I think theres a new ongoing series coming out soon but im not sure when. I think ill pick up at least the first issue
