Andy Griffiths & Terry Denton's The 13-Storey Treehouse (and rest of series)
Lauren Myracle's The Life of Ty (first in series)
Steve Sheinkin's Time Twisters series such as Abraham Lincoln: Pro Wrestler
Doreen Cronin's J.J. Tully Mystery (series) & The Chicken Squad (series)
Kate DiCamillo's 3 Adventures on Deckawoo Drive
Judy Cox's The Secret Chicken Society
Zetta Elliott's Dragon's in a Bag
Debbi Michiko Florence's Jasmine Toguchi Mochi Queen
Katherine Applegate's The One and Only Ivan and The One and Only Bob
Emily Rodda's Fairy Realm series
Poppy Green's The Adventures of Sophie Mouse (I have the 4 books in 1 book)
Jeanne Bender's Lindie Lou Adventure Series
Dan Gutman's baseball card adventure series such as Babe & Me

Happy reading!

I know there was a thread a while back on this, but I can't find it.
I need more easy to read chapter books (200 pages or less) in my PreK-4 library. I keep buying books that get great reviews but they are too long or too hard. I find reviews of chapter books for this level (beyond Elephant and Piggie, but easier than Percy Jackson) scarce (in Horn Book for example).
Popular among my students:
- Diary of a wimpy kid
- Dog Man
- Magic Tree House
- Rainbow Fairies
- Puppy Place.
I have managed to interest some kids in The Princess in Black, Race the Wild, Ranger in Time, Whatever After.
Looking for more ideas. Thank you for any suggestions.
