You'll love Thalia's really unusual stories.

My gymnast loved it!

My second grader has had a hard time getting that interested in reading. Either books are too baby, or they are so long she burns out before finishing them. This book was perfect. It is a chapter book but has a few funny pictures and has wide spacing between lines. Therefore, each page doesn't take forever. She reads for a short time most days at her after school program and would come home and tell me how many chapters she had finished that day. She was proud of herself. She is crazy about gymnastics so that helped draw her in. I've ordered 4 more Go Girls! books and hope she likes them to. She liked "Good Luck Ivy", an American Girl book that was also about gymnastics but it took her a lot longer to get through it.

Excellent Beginner Chapter Books for Girls

A wonderful series of books that encourages children to expand reading and realte to the rich characters.
