I would look at the state's reading list for fifth graders for your son. Also, you should be able to get recommendations from the clerk in the children's section of your local bookstore or spend time looking on Amazon.com at kids' books. Hope that helps.

Thanks for visiting my college blog! I would look at the state’s reading list for fifth graders for your son. Also, you should be able to get recommendations from the clerk in the children’s section of your local bookstore or spend time looking on Amazon.com at kids’ books.

Anyway, thought I'd see what you were up to and stumbled on to your blog. We have two boys, one a sophomore in college and one in 7th grade at a parochial school that is probably more challenging than he really needs, but he is there none the less until high school when he will switch to public. Both of our boys have dyslexia and looking at this reading list, do you have any recommendations on what might work for a boy in seventh grade, but reading at a fifth grade level? I realize reading is not your specialty, but you are dialed to children and education, so thought you may have some insights there too. Thanks! Hi Lynn:
