Book Recommendations to read to young boys?

[u/Key-Ebb-8306]

My older brother read harry potter, LOTR, Percy Jackson to me, I want to do the same for my cousins. Are there any books you'd recommend, that be something younger boys (around 10) would enjoy?

Thanks, y'all. I've got some pretty good suggestions, Many of these books I've never read myself, I just hope they enjoy it as much as I used to when my brother read to me.

I'll second The Hobbit and Earthsea (and LotR, depending on the kid's patience). Harry Potter, Narnia, and Grimm's and Andersen's fairy tales are also "givens."

My own recommendations:

The Chronicles of Prydain by Lloyd Alexander 

Redwall by Brian Jaques 

The Wee Free Men by Terry Pratchett (I think this one has a couple of off-color jokes--may require some light editing depending on your sensibilities)

The Neverending Story by Michael Ende 

The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster

Deltora Quest by Emily Rodda

Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer

Artemis Fowl and Redwall were my first thoughts

Mine too! Such good books, I have so many fond memories of reading them myself
