Suggestions for a 10-11 year aged student reader?
Answers: Go to a local children's bookstore, or in recent times a Barnes and Noble with a big children's slice, and ask them to recommend the popular books for that age group.
nancy drew mysteries and the hardy boys mysteries also learning to to a craft by reading is fun too
I really like the encyclopedia brown series at that age... or the boxcar children.
Harry Potter. There is a reason those books are so popular--they grasp the attention of people who don't as a rule read much.
I learned to read by reading the Redwall books by Brian Jacques when I be younger, and those are a lot of fun for commencing readers too, but I consider Harry Potter is better for someone who doesn't seem similar to "the reading kind."
There are the Babysitter's Club books, the Harry Potter series, the Goosebumps series, and Anne of Green Gables series. Hope that help you and ur niece out and happy reading!!
The first Harry Potter book would be a great concept. It's the kind of book that "sucks you in" and it's really satisfying for a kid or an adult to read. You can try reading it together.
I also second the view of the Nancy Drew books.
try harry potter.
Nancy Drew mysteries. She's just the right age for them, and they're not rock-hard to read.
When you say she is a "student reader," do you mean that she can't read all right? The Harry Potter books are generally great for this age gamut, but they may be too difficult and too long for her if she is not a good reader. She will obtain even more frustrated if she has trouble beside the book.
If she still struggles with reading, I'd suggest the Magic Tree House books, or probably the "Ramona" books by Beverly Cleary. These are a little easier, although the subject business is a little young at heart for an 11-year-old.
Another suggestion is to get her one of the Harry Potter books and read it WITH her. Take turns reading beside her, and occasionally read a chapter to her yourself. If she's getting help and attention while she is reading, she might savour it more and get "hooked."
solitary SHE knows what she like to read
spend some time at the library with her, see what interests her
possibly its romance stories, maybe studying how clocks work, possibly dinosaurs, stories of couterfeiting, psychology, resolving family problems, anything,let HER choose
after also read to and with her, find things you both are interested within when you read to her, also discuss things while you read to her
it is hard to know what her reading stratum is. You don't want her to lose interest in the book because it's too difficult. And you don't want her to receive more turned off because she feel inadequate for not human being able to read better. in attendance are tons of books out there and she should be driven and allowed to read anything she wants because explicitly the best way to acquire her hooked on reading. Is she interested in reading going on for her own development -- approaching "Are You There God, its Me Margaret," is a really good book for that aged girl -- it's roughly getting your period for the first time. It's by Judy Blume and she is a really righteous writer -- funny, clever, sensitive and insightful. She has lots of other books too -- "Gooney Bird Green" and "Freckle Juice" are two short ones. All her books are apt. There are also books that kids like because their not really "reading" books but the kid is still reading... similar to almanacs (kids ones) and "Best Book for Girls" type of books. American Girl books might be really good for her. They hold lots of different ones and some are short and some are non-fiction. They have fun books too, roughly things like quizzes and tips on friendships and boys and how to save your room the way you want it. There'e one call "The Car and Keeping of You," which is about hygiene and taking comfort of yourself (about your period) -- the reason I'm suggesting books in the order of getting your period is that it may be a subject that will interest her satisfactory to make her want to read. It may even be the one subject that she is interested within and doesn't want to talk almost but, will want to know about nonetheless.
There are lots of books that come contained by series -- lots. Most of them are pretty bad but, they are books. The point that's good is that the kid wishes to keep reading them. There's a group of books next to Amelia in the title (by Marisa Moss) that she might similar to because they are printed in script and close to a kids' journal. There are something like a dozen of them and that would be a good bet.
If she like horses or puppies or anything -- perhaps grasp her a coffee table type book on the subject and it will interest her enough to want to read more. or magazine?
my ten yr old daughter loves to step to the libary and just pick out her own books only just make sure theat they are on her reading stratum or to really give her a disregard go up one stage and agree to her "teach you" rather game we resembling to play and it seems to work and it keep her attention. Also play school where on earth shes the teacher and reading to the class.
Not sure what you anticipate by "beginning reader". If you be going to that she's a little bit below her class level, afterwards try these. My daughter loves them, and I don't mind them either. They're 3rd-5th category reading level, depending on the book.
Bailey School Kids - series
Rotten School - gross but funny series
Goosebumps - slightly fear-provoking series
My duaghter is 10 and she likes Junie B Jones!! check them out in attendance good books...
Thanks for your great put somebody through the mill. I'm glad to learn that you are taking an busy interest in supporting your niece's study. Here are some classic fiction books you can read with her, which I significantly recommend, especially if she has trouble reading and because it's the best track you can help her become an enthusiastic reader. I guardedness you that some of the books I hold out here deal beside themes that her parents may not want her to explore at this time. I will take off them to judge that, but it does not curb me from recommend these titles to you, as they remain great works of children's literature. I imagine you probably read a few of these books when you be her age.

Why is she just launch reading at 10-11 years old? Goodness by age 10 my daughter be reading highschool level books. Well I guess I don`t know something along the lines of Harry Potter might work. The American Girl series was a favorite of my daughter when she be about seven. The Ramona series is a virtuous series of books. I also remember The Baby Sitter's Club Books
:The Diamond In The Window" by Jane Langton is an excellent read for a girl her age. It takes place within this older house and have a mystery about some missing children. The basic characters are a girl and her younger brother. I loved this book at that age.
Harry Potter is all the cruelty right now.
