My six-year-old niece is (with her father) reading the Oz books and The Trumpet of the Swan.

What other SF and fantasy can I recommend to her? Just about everything I can think of is either hard to find (the Mushroom Planet books) or a bit beyond her reading comprehension (The Phantom Tollbooth).

Suggestions?
