Definitely have some suggestions!! My son is in 5th grade, too. He has loved: How to Train your Dragon series, Percy Jackson series, The 5 Kingdoms series by Brandon Mull, The Candy Shop Wars, Deltora Quest, The Spirit Animals series, The Seekers series, Elementia trilogy, Harry Potter, Chronicles of Narnia, Leven Thumps, Horrible Histories & The Wingfeather Saga.

Hope this helps!! 🙂

Thanks for your website it’s a real bliss!!!

Our son read 100 books between August and December of 2015 and he was so excited. I wonder what his next goal will be?

Thanks for your comment! Great idea to compile their summaries in a notebook. They will love that!

My kids are avid readers. We come home from the library with a ton of books all the time. But having a visual goal like this will double the fun of reading! I bet they might even make a competition out of it.

As for me, I’m planning on monopolizing on this idea for helping them practice writing a short summary of each book they read (you know author, illustrator, plot, etc.). Then I’ll compile it in a binder – so it’ll also make a great keepsake for them when they get older! As a bonus, it’ll help them keep track of what they’ve read!

Thanks so much!
