Thank you, he loved C.S.Lewis and Tolkein too. Can I ask if you have a preferred version of the Arthurian legends? I don't want to spoil him yet with the new Netflix adaptation.

The Once and Future King by T.H. White. Disney used it for their 1950's (60's?) A Sword in the Stone animated movie.

I want to say I read that one in 5th or 6th grade.

If your boys like dogs, Red Fern and Old Yeller will be tough, but lessons in love and loss for a boy and his dog. Jack London books are great ones for boys and dogs.

Just thought of Kipling's Kim and Stevenson's Treasure Island as great colonial spy and pirate books.
