We just had my sons parent/teacher conference, where the teacher confirmed what we already know. My 8yo son is an extremely gifted reader, with a huge passion for books. He’s apparently up at an 8th grade reading level, now. We all agreed that we’re struggling to find books that are appropriate for his reading level, but also contextually appropriate for his age.
He loves sci-fi and fantasy books most of all. He’s gone through most of the Harry Potter books a few times, and is currently crushing the Percy Jackson series. I was thinking of starting him on The Hobbit, maybe The Giver. I think he would love Ready Player One. But I was hoping for some recommendations on books you think would fit this niche. They don’t necessarily have to be sci-fi/fantasy, but that is the path of least resistance.
nobodys suggested it yet, but i loved the hunger games! it has a female lead and a bunch of romance, so im not sure if he'd be into it, but you can try!
if he's more science-y, give him jurassic park. it was my favorite book in middle school and i still reread it to this day!
