my daughter seems to like scifi. We watched enders game, lost in space series (the new version), arrival, I am mother, and she liked them all. Can I get some more suggestions?

Teens love Dune because the Hero's story is a trope that teens like. Dune will open up their taste for social-science fiction too, i.e., stories that pertain to societies and culture rather than simply pew pew lasers. Watch the 3 versions of Dune; the Lynch, TV series and the latest movie.

People who are downvoting: why?

Is the David Lynch Dune that good? I doubt it. Should a kid be forced to sit through a cult classic? Probably not.

I feel like Dune fanatics leave logic at the door sometimes.
