Interested in a series of beginning chapter books for your son? Then check out the Roscoe Riley Rules books by Katherine Applegate.
“Short chapters, simple dialogue with some big words thrown in (proboscis, epidermis) and a very few first grade potty word phrases (pretty pooped and armpit farts), fast moving action and sweet-tempered friends. The morning action at their house reminded me of getting 4 boys ready to go. Katherine Applegate has captured the thoughts, actions, and emotions of our beloved boys.”

Thanks for sharing this. I just googled 1st Grade Chapter books for Boys and found your listing. I’ve never heard of these books so I’m excited to try them! Thanks, again!
So glad you found us! I hope the books are what you were looking for. Just read one with my 6 year old and it was a hit!
These would be perfect for my 6 year old. I have been looking for some early reader chapter books for him – thanks for sharing.
So glad it helped! Stop back again and let me know what he thought of them.
