I'm a book giver, too - what gift could ever be better than a good book.<br />As for your 13-year-old nephew, my son is almost 13 and he absolutely loves: The Percy Jackson series (The Lightning Thief is book 1), The Maze Runner, The 39 Clues, The Ranger's Apprentice series, Fablehaven... Those are a few. Let me know if those don't sound like a good fit and I'll suggest some more. :)<br />Shannon O'Donnell<br />www.shannonkodonnell.blogspot.comShannon O'Donnellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17299313309059235876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2630091528364380402.post-30818012575853835022009-11-16T08:56:43.960-05:002009-11-16T08:56:43.960-05:00Wendy - that's an excellent idea.

I hadn't thought about audio books, but there's a few on my list who could definitely benefit. <br /><br />Stephen - That's part of the challenge, figuring out what book everyone will like. My family's given me some great ideas. I can't wait to start shopping!<br /><br />Chris - I'd love to be known as the book aunty.

I'm planning on giving several audiobooks to my grandmother who is blind, but I also recently loaned a bunch of books to a teenager with dyslexia who improves her reading by following along in the book while listening to the cd. <br /><br />Anyway--just thought I'd throw in a plug for audiobooks.Wendy Sparrowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06240583852940769313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2630091528364380402.post-3629695222295294842009-11-13T21:31:12.969-05:002009-11-13T21:31:12.969-05:00Thanks Jen for the suggestions.
