My daughter loves reading early chapter books and would love to get book suggestions for her.
I've gone through a lot of the posts about reading suggestions and we've already looked at the kosher book list. I've also combed the library and the web for wholesome suggestions, but it seems we've exhausted the list!
I'm fine with both Jewish and secular books but am very selective in terms of the quality. She enjoys fantasy but doesn't like mysteries or anything scary (it gives her nightmares) and I am not comfortable introducing concepts to her that I feel would be more appropriate for her to learn about when she is older iyH (eg war, politics)
Examples of what she has enjoyed are Savta Simcha, PJ PepperJay, Milly Molly Mandy, The Wishing Chair by Enid Blyton.
I would greatly appreciate books that have clean, innocent and wholesome messages.

Mine liked it too, but when I tried to donate a couple of them to my school's library, they got rejected as not acceptable And it wasn't even the fossils one or the ghost one. Kosherbooks doesn't love them, so I don't know if OP will.

Thank you all so much for the suggestions. Sophie Mouse was great.
I guess am pretty sensitive as I checked out some of the others and found that some had pretty scary pics and disrespectful / mean language and messages...so please keep 'em coming!!
Thanks!
