What BOOK do you read with your kid?

I'm looking for people who have older kiddos, maybe 6-10 yrs?
We read every night, and kinda just read from our 52435345 children's book selection,
he has a couple chapter books, but they're like, graphic novels too.

What are some good classic chapter books to read with/to a new reader?  
My son's a first grader, i was thinking maybe one of my old favorites  

Any other suggestions?

We are reading Charlotte's Web. We just finished James and the Giant Peach.

Sideways Stories from Wayside School

veronica is 4 but she is into cool smurf lol. i bought her the harry potter series for christmas so we can read them together. she will be 5 before christmas. she loves the movies, and has seen the books at target and asked for them.

We finished Charlotte's Web a couple months ago, then took a break from big chapter books for a couple months. Now we are reading Stuart Little. I have a few different Berenstein Bear chapter books.
Inkheart series.
The Hobbit
My friend has started the Harry Potter series with her 7 yr old.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
I have a couple others, but my mind has gone blank for some reason

Quoting Danielle: Jack&Basil'sMom:" Sideways Stories from Wayside School"

This!

Also, Goosebumps and the Fudge series by Judy Blume.

Shel Silverstein- Where the Sidewalk Ends.
It was my favorite as a child, and now my kiddos love it! DS is 4 and DD is 2, but the poems are so silly that they laugh and enjoy them.

Quoting SpaceCowgirl:" We are reading Charlotte's Web. We just finished James and the Giant Peach."

Love those both   Definitely making a list of books we need to read. I think all my old chapter books like that are still at my parent's house  

Quoting DEGO™[OB]:" Shel Silverstein- Where the Sidewalk Ends. It was my favorite as a child, and now my kiddos love it! DS is 4 and DD is 2, but the poems are so silly that they laugh and enjoy them."

oh we have all his books

Oh man, i'm not a harry potter fan, but my mom is, so my son's seen all the movies when he goes over there, haha. I should get him the books too!

Oh! Ralph the mouse was another one I had
And Where the Red Fern Grows (my FAV when I was younger) buuuut I think I will hold off on this one for a couple years.

Quoting Tippie:" We finished Charlotte's Web a couple months ago, then took a break from big chapter books for a couple ... [snip!] ... series with her 7 yr old. Charlie and the Chocolate Factory I have a couple others, but my mind has gone blank for some reason"

Thanks! We have Charlotte's Web here but for some reason haven't read it yet! Definitely good suggestions   He's obsessed with reading and is really getting into books that don't have pictures  

Quoting KNZ.:" Oh man, i'm not a harry potter fan, but my mom is, so my son's seen all the movies when he goes over there, haha. I should get him the books too!"

What is this? What does this sentence mean?

Quoting KNZ.:" Oh man, i'm not a harry potter fan, but my mom is, so my son's seen all the movies when he goes over there, haha. I should get him the books too!"

he would probably love it! i don't know how good he is at reading, but you won't have to read them ALL to him lol you could get him the set and by the time you two finish the first or second one, i'm sure he will be able to read the rest on his own!

One of my favorite books growing up was called Mick Harte was Here. It's a sad book though.
