My nephew is turning 12 and in a family of heavy readers is not one. He LOVES gaming. He loves watching you tube videos of people playing games. He loves Five Nights at Freddie’s. He loves Minecraft & Fortnite. I’m thinking maybe manga or anime as an entryway to more reading? It’s not that he NEEDS to be a reader but his English grades aren’t that great anymore so he really needs to do a little more than he is. Does anybody have any ideas on some books/series that may spark some interest?

I’m not sure if this is exactly what you seek, but there’s this book series by Cara J. Stevens that’s heavily revolved around Minecraft. She has titles such as ‘Chasing Herobrine’, ‘The Battle for the Dragon’s Temple’… and more. Perhaps you could suggest him these? They have really simple formats… like a comic book.
If you proceed… start with ‘Quest for the Golden Apple’. I believe that’s the first in the series
