Well, the range is wide: fairy tales, science fiction, fiction, naratives, simplified short biographies, descriptive books, problem solving, critical thinking ....etc....The most important thing is to make sure that the child is interested and he can learn something.
I agree with Majeda and would suggest almost anything by Roald Dahl ("The Big Friendly Giant", "James and the Giant Peach", "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" (who wouldn't like that?). Other books that I would recommend: "The very hungry Caterpillar" by Eric Carle apart from the story, which tells of the metamorphosis from Caterpillar to Butterfly, it also teaches counting, days of the week and more. "Tales of Peter Rabbit" by Beatrix Potter are gentle and amusing little stories. Dr Seuss "Cat in the Hat" are deliberately "silly" but amusing. "Where the Wild things are" by Maurice Sendak, adventure and imagination, a classic. For the slightly older there are of course the "Harry Potter" books by J.K.Rowlings and "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe" by C.S. Lewis, I guarantee you will get as much enjoyment out of reading all these books as the children do!! I certainly did!
