I haven't read a book since year 6 Miss......

I just had a year 11 boy come up and ask help finding something to read. He said he hadn't read a book since year 6, when he had enjoyed Roald Dahl.

What a challenge! I asked what he had liked about Roald Dahl, so I went with trying to find a grown-up version.

In the end I have challenged him to read an adult book, and we selected a Mike Gayle book (funny but definitely male).

What would you have chosen?? I so rarely have older boys ask for help, my mind went blank for a second!
