NARNIA!  Smiles.  The Hobbit is a great book, but the Lewis tales still hold a dear part in my heart, and I started reading them at age 8 (due to a recommendation in the Reading book in third grade).  They appeal, like HP, to both adults and children.  (Tolkien is good, but just a little bit heavier in my opinion.)

  Like millions of other kids this past summer, my grandkids have been 
  reading Harry Potter.  Nick, who is going into 4th grade was a 
  special surprise.  He never showed much interest in reading or 
  academics in general, but he devoured all four books this summer, 
  with some help from his mother and Jim Dale.

  I'm wondering what would be an appropriate book to get him for his 
  9th birthday. I'm considering either The Hobbit, which I read in high 
  school, or Narina, which I have not read.  Can anyone tell me what 
  would be more appropriate?  What other books are kids in his peer 
  group reading now (after HP)?

  Thanks
  Jim Flanagan
