Try Orca Publishing... I had great success with their books when I was in a previous school district. They have titles specifically that are high interest - low reading level, but are for older kids. They "look" like "typica" fiction and my former students loved the variety and story lines.

Subject: [CASL-L] Hi/Lo titles for middle grades ELL readers
 
I have some really low level readers, many of whom are ESL and I'd like to get them reading more (Some are even struggling with Dork Diaries). Was hoping this group could suggest some high interest/low (Hi/Lo) fiction books for middle school aged kids. TIA!
