Funny / clean romance tween books to counter sad books
My daughter will be reading many sad books for school next year and I need some cheerful/funny/ happy books for her to counter this. Books she is assigned are “Where the Red Fern Grows,” “Number the Stars,” “The Hiding Place,” “Witch of Blackbird Pond,” “Oregon Trail,” “A Lion to Guard Us,” among others and is also learning about more mature things such as the Donner Party. She will be in 5th grade / 10 years old. She is a great reader and can easily read 50-100 or more pages a day.
Books she has read that were among her favorites:
Harry Potter Series
Ramona Quincy Collection
Junie B Jones Collection
Henry Huggins Collection
Who What When” series by WhoHQ - current favorite
I want her to have some just straight FUNNY books to help get her mind thinking about something other than the sad things that have happened in this world and what is happening in this world. But I need them to be age appropriate as well-nothing sexual and no profanity.
Thinking like a kids version of “Bridget Jones Diary.” Or a cleaner version of “Angus Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging.” It can teach no lessons at all and be nonsense - but just be funny.
Thank you!
