What books do you recommend for a 7 yo girl? Would like to get a few for my daughter for Christmas. Her reading skills are quite good, but the challenge is keeping her interested in the book! Would welcome any recommendations

DD loves the diary of a wimpy kid series. She asked for Ramona and Beezus for Christmas but I couldn't find it anywhere.

The witches handbook. You can buy it second hand on Ebay. My absolute favourite when I was a little girl and I have bought it for several friends' daughters. It is gorgeous!

Our 6 year old is loving the Famous Five. The words aren't difficult but there is some old fashioned language. She's also into Pearlie and the Faraway Tree and Wishing Chair.
