Read out loud as much as you can. Beatrix Potter is great. Older kids books in general usually have a more varied vocabulary. Fairy tales are good… Just lots of different books. Books that they actually like are more likely to encourage a love of reading; don’t make it about attaining some kind of goal…

I second the suggestions for Charlotte’s Web and The Wizard of Oz.
Alice in Wonderland & Through the Looking-glass by Lewis Carroll
The Chronicles of Narnia series by C.S. Lewis
A Child’s Garden of Verses by Robert Louis Stevenson
Stuart Little and The Trumpet of the Swan by E.B. White
