Get him some books he actually likes.  There are a lot of illustrated novels, and lots of good young-adult fiction.  Even comics like Calvin & Hobbes or Zits have plenty of adult-based humor, so what if they have pictures, it's still reading.  Let's not forget the Lord of the Rings, The Warriors, and Harry Potter series.
