The thing is If he falls in love with it and wants more it will get expensive to track down old books

and a lot of work needs to go into preparing games with the older rules with home made scenarios. The current rules have more mathematical theory and balance going into it and lots of classes, races, monsters, scenarios and campaigns all ready to go. It’s ljmenhaving a buffet compared to a set dinner list

from the starter set you’d get stuff in the following order:

players hand book (making new characters and accessing other classes, spellsand races) and is important as you can’t go passed level five with the starte set

next is a monster manual for having gribblies and baddies to populaye the world

Next should be a campaign book

then the sun from masters guide. Not as essential but handy
