So, oldest daughter turns 6 (gasp) this weekend, and it's time to buy presents. One of which will likely be a new chapter book for pre-bed reading. Any suggestions? We've been through E.B. White, lots of Dahl, an Oz book or two, one Beverly Cleary, Bedknobs and Broomsticks, Dr. Doolittle, probably others that I'm not thinking of. Any childhood favorits coming to mind?

Also, any other inspired ideas for birthday gifts for a 6 year old girl would be appreciated.

Thanks all. Ollie

The Ramona series was the Wonk Princess's favorite when she was that age. She also liked the Fudge books. Judy Blume was the author of the Fudge series and Beverly Cleary wrote the Ramona books. Harriet the Spy was also a favorite.
