My 12-year-old grandson likes to read, and probably reads a year or so beyond his age. He has done the Harry Potters and most other popular kid's series, and his mother (and I) would like to nudge him into some classics as well as some broader variety of topics. He's a very sweet-tempered, rather shy boy with a nice sense of humor. Not very competitive, not especially into major sports -- a little soccer, good in Karate, likes music.
So reader guys -- what youth classics or other youth books did you especially enjoy around Junior High age? Any sports hero books, inventors, inspiring military or history stories? I'd love to get him interested in history and foreign cultures and places. Any of you parents or others with suggestions, please! Help me out.
