Sorry, I hit my send button too soon. 4th and 5th grade with some guidance,

This also happened with my 7th grade son. I just bought both Wimpy books
because it reminded me of a text he finally picked up and read on his own.
I would recommend, "The Absolute True Diary of a Part-Time Indian" by
Sherman Alexie. It also has drawn comics since the main character is an
artist.
Today's Choice Literacy message suggested some beginning graphic novels. Two
that looked interesting were new versions of The Babysitter's Club and Time
Warp Trio.

Ditto on Wimpy Kid. My own son is a struggling, reluctant third grade
reader and he went nuts over it. I gave his copy to one of my 5th graders
who's

My third grade boys recently discovered this book also. One boy did a book talk
on it and now the other boys are fighting over the only copy in our library.
Time to order more...like I haven't spent enough money this year on books!
