Betsy- Thanks so much for asking this! We've been needing some new ideas
around here, too! We've just finished Eragon by Christopher Paolini. We
sincerely hope the author of that book is busy on his second! Deirdre

really likes Harry Potter and Edward Eager and Mercedes Lackey. He likes
the Star Trek TNG novels about when the characters went to school. <g>
(Starfleet Academy) I'd probably read them aloud, so difficult vocabulary
is not a problem.

sci fi books. The only "juvenille" SciFi that leaps to mind is Heinlein,
and the science in those is pretty outdated.

really like non-humanoid aliens.
