Children's Lit?

I'm planning to get my granddaughter a pink pocket pro for her birthday. She's a very good reader although she is only going to be 8. I don't know anything about literature for young girls. I think Beatrix Potter is way too young and Harry Potter is unavailable.

I thought of getting her some classics, but don't want to insult her intelligence. I thought of The Hobbit, which my kids enjoyed at that age, but they were all boys. Maybe Nancy Drew? Or is that too old fashioned?

Any suggestions are welcome. Thanks in advance for your help.
