What are some good chapter books for an upper elementary book club?

I'd like chapter books that are in paperback and are age-appropriate for 3rd-6th graders. Cussing and sexual content should be kept to a minimum if at all. Classics are probably out of the question b/c I don't want to step on the toes of teachers. So far I've got The Secret Apartment, The Landry News, The War with Grandpa, and The Watsons Go to Birmingham. If you're a middle schooler who has some books you really like(d), I'd love your opinion. Same thing for parents and book lovers in general. :) Thanks!What are some good chapter books for an upper elementary book club?

For 3rd graders (and maybe 4th), the Junie B. Jones books by Babara Park are really cute and funny. My daughter is going into 3rd grade this year and loves them. The Bailey School Kids series and Magic Tree House books are also very good and educational. All of these are easier chapter books. My daughter also loves another series called Puppy Pals that the younger of these kids may like.What are some good chapter books for an upper elementary book club?
My Teacher is an Alien by Bruce Coville

I am a 6th Grade Alien by Bruce Coville

Whales on Stilts by M. T. Anderson
Magic Tree House books by Mary Pope Osbourne

The Boxcar Children by Warner

The Judy Moody Books
Well I'd recommend Princess Diaries series and The Borrowers

There are some sites that can give you info on some great books like bookadventure.com

Sabrina the Teenage Witch are some great series as well

The Listmaker

Teen Power Inc.

Harry Potter
How about any of the series of Tree House Mysteries? Or 4th grade Rats? Or A-Z mysteries? OR Pee-Wee Scouts? Or how about any of the Henry %26amp; Mudge series? OR the Junie B. Jones series? Or Bunnicula? These are all books that my kids loved to read %26amp; also books that I see kids take out of our public school library. I ordered alot of these kinds of books through the school (the kids would bring home these little paper flyers about every 6 weeks or so).....through Troll Books %26amp; Scholastic Books. Hope this helps. :)
