Parody or satire books for an 11 year old

Can you recommend good parodies or satirical novels for an 11 year old?

My son is doing a reading challenge at school where he needs to read books of different genres, then write a small report about each. He's covered all the categories that he's naturally interested in -- fantasy, mystery, graphic novel, adventure -- and now has to do the harder work of picking a book outside his comfort zone.

Of the categories that remain, two that caught my eye as being good candidates for him are satire and parody. I told him there are bound to be good novels in those categories that would not only work for the project but also leave him in stitches. But to be honest... I'm not sure what would qualify / be appropriate for someone his age.

Within his preferred genres, he's a voracious reader. A few things he's enjoyed recently are all the Rick Riordan novels he can get his hands on, the Spy School series, Harry Potter, the Brotherband Chronicles.

Any suggestions?
