I hope there's nothing wrong with fourth and fifth grade girls reading Stephen King. I ate his stuff up at that age, having gotten addicted to horror novels in third grade when I read the Exorcist.
Stellaluna is great. Which reminds me that The Trumpet of the Swan is, too.
Lines:
I read Stephen King at that age. My teachers thought I was a bit weird when I brought out Pet Semetary during reading time in class.
RaysOfDarkMatter:
I loved Stellaluna. I've never read The Trumpet of the Swan... I'll have to look into that.
Yeah, that's actually when I started reading R.L. Stein... when I started reading Stephen King, that is. My teachers thought that if I was going to read horror, I should probably read more age-appropriate 'horror'. It didn't work, but at least I got exposed to another author I ended up liking. ^_^
Bearer:
God I was hoping someone would post Redwall. "Martin the Warrior", "Mossflower", and "Legend of Luke" make up one of the best trilogies ever, period. Go read them.
Phantom Tollbooth is another good one, but the one I vividly remember: The Polar Express.
Neskah:
Any of the Faraway tree series. Especially when your older brother reads Moonfaces name with a heavy greek accent.
Also Stephen King was also a favourite at a young age. Anything that gave you goosebumps.
When I was much younger I was a fan of The Big Orange Splot, though always thought purple would have been a better colour.
