I have been trying to brush up on my chapter book knowledge in preparation for the summer reading program and I have come across a few good ones. I liked reading Angie Sage's first Araminta Spookie book, called
My Haunted House. It's a fairly basic story about a kid who doesn't want to move away from her comfortable home, but the twist is that the house is really haunted, and the people who want to buy it are really into that sort of thing. Araminta is a winning main character whose inventive, messy plans to keep people from wanting to buy the house will have kids laughing and cheering.
I also liked
Super Chicken Nugget Boy and the Furious Fry. This is a promising new series by Josh Lewis that incorporates comics with the classic fight-against-bullies story. Anyone who likes the Shredderman books by Wendelin Van Draan will also really like this series, although the Chicken Nugget books have quite a bit more silliness and humor in them.
