Bootcamp by Strasser is also a good option.

I have a sophomore who struggles to find books he enjoys. I’ve tried offering him a wide variety of titles and genres (including some of my usual reluctant reader go-to regular novels, graphic novels, hi-lows, etc.). He expressed frustration recently and told me he just wants to like a book again like he did when he was little ☹, which kind of broke my heart—he mentioned fond memories of reading Magic Treehouse and the Lunch Lady series. I’m going to order a few Wimpy Kids, which I personally love but don’t currently have in my collection. Any ideas for other titles or series I could try with him?
Thanks!
