I listened to Led Zeppelin IV a few times and liked it. Wondering where to go next.

II is my fav, but it's bluesier. They lost most of their blues roots by IV

You should try everyone of them. Led Zeppelin accomplished so much in their short carrer. If you love Zeppelin so much, you should try all their live albums, even Celebration Day. My other favorite album is Led Zeppelin III but you should go back and understand why these giant influenced so much bands. I reccomand you Led Zeppelin II, then Houses of The Holy, then the others. The first album is too recycled for my tastes.
 
Again, Happy Birthday. 13 years old is the best gift ever. And I'm going to give you the album that I reccomanded you:
 
 
This is great.

Zeppelin debut ---> Physical Graffiti is mandatory rock'n'roll listening imo.

Physical Graffiti. My favorite Zeppelin album. Long proggy songs, plenty of hard licks, some acoustic and softer songs, a goodly amount of blues, and John Bonham drumming in rare form. Something for everyone in a 2 CD Set and very well done throughout. Both Page and Plant consider Graffiti as Zeppelin's high watermark. I would agree.

You should make a point of hearing them all, but my personal favorite is Physical Graffiti.  One of the great all-time bands.

^ LZ III is mostly acoustic stuff. That said, I'd recommend I or II, but really, I think you should try them all (just pretty much what most of the people above have said.

I'm shocked that Houses of the Holy doesn't have better reviews. In my opinion, easily their best album. The Rain Song may be Zeppelin's best song ever (yes, Zeppelin lovers get your rocks out to stone me). There's not one bad song on the album. Rain Song is epic, beautiful, (builds up to) rocking, MELLOTRON, HELLO?! and just plain awesome.

I agree, that's where my vote goes. 
New album!
