Yes I am familiar with the popular author Dan Freedman. Many authors do school visits as it is a way to boost their salary as publishers are notoriously mean, even with well know authors.
There are many great stories out their for young people. These authors I can recommend Steve Backshall, Andy Briggs and Chris Bradford.
Barrington Stoke publish books for reluctant and dyslexic readers and they get all the top authors to write short books which they make appropriate for their readers. They are worth looking at even if you grandson is a fluent reader.
