DS2 has recently enjoyed the spy school series -- he is in 5th grade and on grade reading level. He likes funny books.I am not going to be much help as DD is younger, but she also likes funny books. I am also struggling to find books that she will enjoy. Is the spy school series funny?
Book series she has enjoyed:
Diary of a wimpy kid
Dog Man
Captin underpants
13 story tree house
Diary of a sixth grade ninja

Land of Stories series - my DD loved it. It's about fairy tales, but clever, and she had some classmates (boys) who liked it a lot.

Forgot about those! I loved them and told ds2 to add them to his list.

Has he read all the Chris Grabenstein books? There's Escape From Mr. Lemoncello's Library (and the sequels) as well as Welcome to Wonderland. James Patterson has a bunch of funny series - the Treasure Hunter series, the I Funny series, and the Middle School series.

She really liked all of the Stuart Gibbs books. He has the Panda series and the Alpha Moon series. Both of those are great.
Also try Carl Hiaasan. Hoot is the first book, there are about 5 books in that series.

Genius Files by Gutman

[elbenn]

Holes and Tales from the Wayside Schools by Louis Sacher
Not funny but a series that seems to have really caught the interest of boys that age is Wings of Fire series (fantasy series about dragons)
The James Patterson Middle School series

Framed! series by James Ponti--a tween consultant to the FBI helps solve art heists and other crimes. So fun!

Omega City series by Diana Peterfreund--Goonies meets NASA, great middle grade adventure with awesome sibling and friend dynamics

These are great. I'm going to look into some for my 10 year old DD. Thanks for starting this thread.

I wanted to come back and update. I bought the James Ponti books for DS1 but DS2 picked them up and couldn’t put them down. He loved them! He generally only reads graphic novels so this was a big win. Thanks for recommending them!!
