If you have a good library try "Five In A Row". My girls are enjoying it. This is a literature based program that teaches Social Studies, Language, Art, Math and Science. I would suggest adding another math program and a phonics program. \n I also like using "Teach Your Child to Read In 100 Easy Lessons"  for phonics. This can be bought at Walmart On-line. \nFor additional math I use Alpha Omega Lifepac but there are MANY to chose from. \n3Moms.com is great for encouragement and they have a bundle of sample lessons so you can see what is best for your family to use. \nFor extra work I like to use www.schoolexpress.com. They have a variety of free printable worksheets on many subjects.\nA fun on-line place to learn is www.factmonster.com.\nAnother fun and educational free place to learn to read is Starfall.com\nI have been home schooling for 6 years and every year I find something new and exciting from my searches. Another great place to search on the web to find any answer is www.ask.com. Ask Jeeves finds specific web sites for your specific question.

The International Reading Association has a list of "hot books" for adolescent readers.  I bought a few for the shelf...they flew off!  www.ira.org

You could get her a copy of "Oh, the Places You'll Go!" by Dr. Seuss. It's fun and very encouraging. Traditionally it's a gift for graduation but it kind of sends the message that you're very proud of her accomplishment.

Buy her a book she wants to read and can't get.  Try half.com for cheap stuff.

Don't resort to the internet for your daughter's activities. It's great that she's an avid reader - keep checking out library books for her. Check out or buy good videos, as well. You could get her some basic art supplies and she can sketch and paint. She can learn to bake bread, and cook meals, using cookbooks. She can learn to knit or do needlepoint. Get her involved with learning an instrument - piano is ideal, but a flute or violin would be great, too. If you have the financial means, hire a language tutor to teach her a different language - Spanish or Chinese would be useful choices for her future. You sound like a good parent!

A really special book, preferably something you loved when you were little, and a small stuffed animal.  Sit down and read it to her and the stuffed animal.  Tell her that she should read to the stuffed animal whenever she can so he can love reading just as much as the both of you.

Ask her parents what is appropriate and have them give suggestions. I wouldn't go higher than a PG-13 rating, but her parents should decide.

Since she's a gamer, get her a new game. If you're not sure about what game you should get her, look at her current games. What type of games are they? Are they action & adventure or fantasy or something else? Once you've found that out, go to a game shop and ask the people who work there for suggestions. You can tell them that you're looking for, eg. a good fantasy game.\n\nSo she already has an iPod Nano, but you can still get her accessories for her iPod. How about a designer case for her iPod or get her a Pillow Pod here: \nhttp://www.target.com/gp/detail.html/602-8621475-4432632?asin=B000ETNUC2&AFID=Shopping&LNM=B000ETNUC2|Pillow_Pod__Lime&ref=tgt_adv_XSC10001\n\nAs she's into movies, you can pre-order the hottest releases on DVD at wal-mart.com or get her a portable dvd player so she can enjoy her favorite movies, music or photos anywhere she goes.\n\nSince you say she loves to read almost anything, I suggest you get her a book from the "Gossip Girls" series or you can even get the box set.\n\nGood luck!

Ella Enchanted (my favorite book of ALL TIME!!) If your 15 you should like the 'Princess Diares' seris by Meg Cabot, those are really good. as well as 'Size 12 is not fat' (By Meg Cabot) It's a murder mystery. umm 'The secret life of bees' by Sue Monk Kidd is pretty good, it's about life in the 60's. If you like greek myths than the 'Myth~O~Mania' books by Kate McMullan, are pretty good, there the 'real' myths told her way. Very Funny. If you like Adventur i would suggest the Alex Rider seris (first one is called 'Stormbreaker' by Anthoney Ho...something)

This is a common problem.  There are many ways you can help her improve her reading comprehension.\n\nThe first step is to get her in the habit of "previewing" the book before she reads it.  Have her look at the front cover, the title, and the pictures.  Ask her what she thinks the story will be about, who the characters will be, etc..  That gets her mind ready to read.\n\nNext, on each page have her look at the picture BEFORE she reads the text.  Ask her to tell you what is going on the picture, and what she notices.  This will give her some more specific idea of what she's going to read on that page, before she even reads it.\n\nAfter she reads the page, ask her to tell back to you what happened on that page.  Check to see how much detail she is able to recall.  Is she getting the overall picture, but leaving out details?  That's good.  Or is she remembering specific, small details, but not putting them into context or getting the big picture?  Or is she not remembering anything at all?  If her retell of that one page is incomplete, have her read it again.\n\nAs she proceeds through the book, she should to a "picture tell back" for every picture, and she should do a retell after each and every page.  This will help you monitor her comprehension as you go.  Don't ask her specific questions to prompt her to retell.  Just ask, "what happened on that page?"  Then nod and listen.  If the retelling is incomplete or incorrect, encourage her to re-read and retell again.  As she gets into the habit of retelling, it will improve her concentration and comprehension.  Knowing that you have to retell forces you to pay attention to the story.\n\nAt the same time, you do need to ask certain questions to promote her involvement in the story. For example, ask her to make predictions about what's going to happen next.  Then encourage her to read and find out if her prediction was correct.  Ask her to make connections between the book and her own life.  For example, "Do you think you would like to eat green eggs and ham?  Has anyone every tried to make you eat something you didn't want to?"  Etc.\n\nYou can also incorporate fun activities in with the reading of a book, to encourage her interest and involvement in the story.  For example, you could stop reading before the end, put down the book, and write your own endings to the story (with your own illustrations, too, of course).  Or you could act out different parts of the story together.  When you finish reading, you could encourage your daughter to draw a picture showing what she thinks happened to the characters after the story ended.\n\nThe important thing to remember is to teach her to monitor her comprehension as she goes.  You can even demonstrate it for her.  Read a page aloud, then stop and say, "What happened on this page was...  wait a minute... I don't remember!  I better read it again."  Then read it again and retell it out loud.  Encourage her to always do that on her own.  Because if you can't retell the story out loud in your own words, then you aren't really reading.

For a Young Adult Fiction book to be my favorite, it would have to be "deep." Watership Down by Richard Adams is excellent. I've enjoyed YA for years even though I'm not a young adult myself.\n\nHow about "Girl, 15, Charming but Insane" by Sue Limb? It's part one of a planned trilogy. On Amazon it's got a 5 star rating.
