Nothing new here but wanted to add the Boxcar Children- my friend's son is almost 7 and he loves these for readaloud. I do readalouds w/ Magic Tree House and my ds loves it at almost -6. I have been reading him some of Roald Dahls books as well and we have both enjoyed those- not really series books but he has a wide variety in varying lengths. Also, I haven't read them yet- as they aren't available at the library here but HC Holling has at least a handful of books that look to be about the right size for that age that I just put on my wishlist! http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=ntt_athr...20C.%20Holling
 
From the ReadAloud Handbook-
The Littles Series(wrote in the 70s)- Owls in the Family (61)

I haven't read these myself though.
