Something in the description of the My Father's Dragon series reminded me of the Spiderwick Chronicles. They're great fun (secret rooms! I LOVED the idea of secret rooms as a child). And definitely more adventuresome than scary.
(I wouldn't say the same of the movie, which contained the useful take-home message that if your parents divorce and your father comes back and says he loves you, he's certainly a beastie in disguise.)
