My dd7 loves, loves, loves
Calvin and Hobbes,
The Far Side, Get Fuzzy,
Mother Goose and Grim and some other random comic strip books we have around (I didn't realize how many I had until I went digging around when she started consuming them at a rapid rate, but the library has a lot also)
Of course some of the content shoots right over her head and she brings stuff for us to explain, but she just sits and giggles while she's reading.
She also has a new appreciation for the newspaper funnies that her grandpa is just loving. Every time we visit she drags home the dailies from their newspapers.
Archie comics too.
I think there are quite a few graphic novel type comics out for younger readers that they might get a kick out of.
