We took this approach with my stepdaughter, who by her own proclamation "hated reading" long before she was ever required to read anything by anyone... but we were forced to compromise to the point of manga (graphic novels.) It was all she would read for years, but we figured it was better than nothing. She has just this year finally started to voluntarily branch out into books without pictures, which we were very happy about.
