Yeah, they've read those...thanks for suggestions above folks... in fact, they are all avid readers, and go to library regularly, but it's just that they fixate on this popular stuff, which IMHO is a pile of tripe, like eating biscuits instead of yer dinner, if you get my drift!alicat said:Any reading they enjoy is good even if you think it's tripe. Have you tried Roald Dahl or CS Lewis?
