for being read to:
or reading himself at some point. I remember reading these in grade school.
Wrinkle in Time (by Madeline L'Engle)
The Hobbit (Tolkien)
The Xanth series of books is good by Piers Anthony, there are 47 books in the series and at some point they get old.
but at least try the first 3 or 4. And read in order.
First is A Spell for Chameleon; second is Source of Magic
Also by the same author, but probably for a little older kid, and great for reading to him, is the six book Apprentice Adept series, it is two trilogies, which include two parallel worlds, a world of science and a world of magic, and there are characters who travel between the two worlds. I love those books.
"The series takes place on Phaze and Proton, two worlds occupying the same space in two different dimensional planes. Phaze is a lush planet of magic, where Proton is a barren mining planet of science. As the series opens, each person born on Phaze and Proton has an alternate self living on the other world. But if a person on either world lacks a duplicate (for instance if a Proton citizen immigrated there from another planet, or a counterpart from the opposite frame died), he can cross to the other through an energy "curtain" that circumscribes each frame."
