For a seven year old who likes adventure and fantasy stories that aren’t scary.
By Mirror_Late
My kid is 7 and her reading is around a 4th–5th grade level. I’m trying to find books that are fun but not emotionally too much for her. She’s liked: - Unicorn Academy - Boxcar Children - The Secret Zoo (some parts were kind of scary, but she still ended up liking it overall) - Junior B. Jones - Ivy and Bean - Dog Man - Captain Underpants - Lemonade Wars But Impossible Creatures was a little too scary for her. We also tried The Hatchet—read a bit of the first chapter—and that felt too scary again. We tried some of Narnia and The Hobbit too, but she thought both were kinda boring/slow, so we didn’t get very far. Also, I’m thinking she’d probably love a “choose your own adventure” style book, as long as there aren’t too many scary endings.
