Comic Book
Pick what they love and their reading level, get a decodable comic with panels and speech bubbles.
Some kids will not read a page of plain text but will read a comic three times. You type the interest (robots, soccer, a cat who is secretly a spy), pick the reading level and set the number of pages. Out comes a comic with panels, speech bubbles and short lines the child can actually decode at that level. Print it on A4, fold it in half and it looks like a comic from the newsagent. The pictures do a lot of the work, so it suits the reader who wants a story without a wall of words. It is a reader, not a graphic novel.
