What Age Group Is Goosebumps For? Need Book Ideas for 7 Yr Old.

Try Sonlight.com reader lists for age appropriate books that are acceptable from a Christian perspective. Some of the books on the list are fun fiction, like Encyclopedia Brown, Misty of Chincoteague, Little House on the Prairie, etc. I would recommend Christian Book Distributors online for adolescent books as well. In lieu of Goosebumps, my children read the Christian fiction author Frank Peretti's children series. My son, who is now 22, says those are still his favorite all time books. My daughter liked the American girl series.

I think Goosebumps are for ages 9 - 12 or so, so if she is reading at 3rd grade level, that might be a good series for her. i never read them, but i used to read the Fear Street books by R.L. Stine (same author) (back in the 90s! haha )when i was a pre-teen/teenager and loved them. I loved reading when i was that age, so i'm trying to remember what i read..... i also used to read The Babysitters Club - dont know if those are still out??? What about the Little House on the Prairee series? I never read that, but used to love watching the show when I was younger. The chronicles of narnia - not sure if that's her age group. I also used to read Nancy Drew. What about those Lemony Snicket Series of Unfortunate Events books? those might be her age group? Oh, i also used to love Sweet Valley High and I think they had a series for younger girls called Sweet Valley Twins when they were younger.

Hope that helped give you some ideas. :)

How about the "Ramona" books by Beverly Cleary?

Here's a GREAT thread for you on DFW Area Moms: http://www.dfwareamoms.com/forums/showthread.php?t=129298...

My kids never got into Goosebumps, so I can't tell you about that series, but they really enjoy Magic Treehouse, Boxcar Children, Jigsaw Jones, and Amber Brown.

We tried Little House when my oldest was younger (she's a really good reader as well), but she didn't really get into them until 4th grade.

Good luck!

My daughter is in second grade and is also reading well above grade level. She loves Goosebumps books and has read a bunch of them. She also likes the Judy Moody book series. She has read The Diary of A Wimpy Kid around 6 and kinda liked them. She is also really into factual books about animals and stuff like that. Scholastic lists books for children that read about age level but are appropriate for your child as well if you are ever concerned.

depends on the child. one child may never be able to read goosebumps because they are scary. Another child will think they are funny. Does your child scare easily? If so, don't bother with this series. If she likes scary things then you have a new series of books for her. You know your daughter best.

My son has gone through the Magic Tree House series.. Great books, lots of learning involved and a great story to boot. there are over 40 books and each has what is called a Research guide which is dedicated to the subject matter of each book, really dives into the teaching part of the books.
