My sister is turning 11 next week and I want to get her a good book, she has a good sense of humor but a short attention span. Any suggestions?

A novelization of the movie Precious: based on the novel Push by Sapphire

I bet there is a 'Greek Classics for kids' somewhere.
A collection of poems by Gerard Manley Hopkins would suit the lass well, i think.

some learned fables for good old boys and girls
Harry potter so she could grow up to read stephen king : )
Judy Bloom, Roald Dahl, and Walter Moers are all pretty good kids' authors. Matilda is good, and I like The 13 1/2 Lives of Captain Bluebear, which is long but can be read in sections.
Start with the Greeks. If she has a truly great sense of humor she'll love Soc-meme master-rates
