Harry Potter?

Classics like some of Charles Dickens books?

We have read Harry potter several times lol I dont know if he would enjoy the classics, he is more of a monsters, beasts and funny type iykwim. I did start reading him Oliver Twist as a bedtime story once but he lost interest really quickly

Out of This World
Tracks of the Tiger
Lost Worlds
Mysterium – The Black Dragon
Monster Odyssey
Johnny Swanson
Cannibal Adventure
The Last of the Sky Pirates
