Seriously, she can't get enough to read. She has moved up from the thin chapter books like rainbow magic and is reading thicker books like Ivy & Bean, and she starts reading and finishes off the entire book in a matter of hours.
Her recent favorite is this 5 book series called Sister Magic. It it a bit thin for her these days, but she was in love with the story line. The story is written from the perspective of 8 year old Mabel. Mabel is a straight laced rule follower who likes things to go according to plan. The trouble is, Mabel has a very whimsical and free spirited 5 yo sister named Violet. If that isn't bad enough, she discovers that Violet has magic. The dynamic between the two is so endearing. Malia can relate so much to Mabel, and yet is enchanted with Violet's nature. Such a cute little series.
She's recently started to get in to Ivy & Bean. If you know of any chapter or series books she might like- do let us know!

I loved the Booky trilogy when I was a girl:

Also, what about the Boxcar Kids series? I hear good things about the Magic Treehouse series too.
