Hi everybody,

My little son, who will be 7 by the end of this year, is a book addict. He spends most of his free time in reading various types of books.

His recent interest is the series of Harry Po ...

hi , don't worry, I also read all the Harry Potter serious.
I think the most important thing is that whether your son can differentiate - content was really a story/novel and it can/must not apply to real life!!!!

I have your worry too for some other child story books for my daughter of 4
let say, for example, Jack and the beanstalk, a story about a magic bean tree to the sky and the giant. The child, Jack cut the magic bean tree by axe so that the giant fell down from sky and killed.

you know in read society we punish people by sending them to court and prision. We cannot kill people by whatever means and reason.
But my daughter, though only 4, also able to understand that is story and not mix up with the real life.

let him go!

Hi C9C9

I am afraid he will think too much when he sees there are so many good characters in the book are killed.

so characters killed in HP 7 were second line characters. The books did not describe the killing in details actually!
Reading is different from watching TV!
HP are good novels, don't worry!

Hi wisekid2007,

As a Christian, I strongly advise children not to read the Harry Potter. I am pretty sure that a bright kid (or even an average kid) at the age of 7 is capable of distinguishing the real life from novels. However, you never know what kind of value those stories instil in a kid when he/she keeps on reading them. Not to mention that you yourself have worries over the content.

I didn't stop my son from watching or reading the Harry Potter because, thanks to the Lord, that he himself found it uninteresting the first time he watched the movie.

You may consider introducing some other books to your child to divert his attention from Harry Potter. I would recommend the Narnia series by C.S. Lewis and some non-fiction like Horrible Science, Horrible History and Horrible Geography.

Hi C9C9

Thanks for your reply.

I am not concern whether my son can differentiate what real life from novel. He has no problem in this.

On the other hand, my son is very emotional and sensitive. He ...

Hi C9C9,

I'm sorry that I could not agree with you. Allow me to say that the life of a person is precious, be that person a good guy or bad guy, "main character" or "second line character". I don't think anyone on earth has the right to determine who deserves to die.

Hi wisekid2007,

Parents should definitely guide, not dictate, their children in choosing books.

In that case, you may consider "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" and other interesting stories by Roald Dahl. "My Father Got an Aligator" and other funny stories by Jeremy Strong.

The Horrible ~ series are really informative and interesting. You can read with him at the beginning. When he finds that they are not horrible at all, he will enjoy reading them.

It's really good that your son loves reading.

Hi wisekid2007,

You are welcome. My pleasure to share with you.

If you'd like your son to read more Chinese, you may read with him at the beginning. Start with something light and fun. Even "Doraemon" comics will do.

Hi gitmee

Thanks for your advice.

I will try the Horrible series later when my son has consumed most of his existing non-fiction books.

Since my son started to read words (but not only pictures) ...

Hi wisekid2007,

I think you have to let your son know that the coming series are not suitable for child as many characters would die.

After read Harry Potter for one and a half series, my son (when he was 7 years old) he felt scare and has nightmare. He was afraid of darkness and needed me to talk to him till he sleep every night. Finally, he discontinued to read Harry Potter.

And from that time onwards, he has never read Harry Potter again even though somebody sent him as a gift.

But still he likes to read very much. He is also a book worm but for Chinese only.

Anyway, different children have different response. But small child may not accept and get to know about death. You have to do a lot of counciling job.

Hi wisekid2007,

Schoolastic does publish a great variety of good books. Does your son read any Chinese books?

Hi gitmee

Apart from the Horrible Science, my son's recent favourite also includes the Dead Famous series.

Hi!  Everybody

It seems all of your kids are very smart and able to read in English.  Can you help me with the below problem?

My Kid's (9yrs old)  Eng is not very good, her vocabulary is week (may be because my Eng is not very well as well),  her vocabulary is very weak. However, she is not refuse to read in Eng (May be because my Domestic Helper read Eng with her in the past). I already very hard to read Eng books with her, i use dictionary to find all the meaning of the words before I read with her everyday. My kid are not refuse to read in Eng, but her Eng is still bad.

May I ask if it is not possible to have a good Eng Kid if the parent's Eng is weak.  How can this improve?

Thanks helping!

Hi, Christf!

My kid can read some chapter books in her leisure time, she can understand the general content of the books, she can read all the words by the spelling, but she don't know the meanings of the words.

But I found that she always don't know the meaning of the words. I think she has at least 4 to 5 unknown words in one page.

I have read the books of Schoolastic in book shops, but I thinks the words is even harder than Narnia series and Roald Dahl series. Do you think so.
