I want to buy a book for my little sister who just learned to read as a christmas gift. Anyone can recommend something good? I want to give her a actually good book she can also read when she gets older, not that retarded bullshit " about a girl who got new roller blades and fell and hurt her knee and mommy came and made it all ok THE END". Some of my favourite fun reads are the discworld books but I imagine that would be kinda hard to digest for a kid, or not?

>pic unrelated ofc
