Hi,

Has anyone here read Artemis Fowl series? Thinking about getting it for my kid. Was wondering if it is fine for 8-9 year old kid.

Also, any other recommendations? He loved Diary of the Wimpy Kid, but struggled to get into Harry Potter.

Thanks.

    Yeah, I have seen kind of mixed response to this. So, going to read it myself first, and then decide.

    Thanks for your input!

      It’s hard finding kid appropriate content anymore, especially with relevance to wider literature influences. If you dont mind movies, have you considered Howard Lovecraft animated series?

        Thanks. I have never heard of them, will check them out.

        In general, we want to get him to reading, and away from the screens, but if it’s an interesting watch, we can set it for our movie nights.
