Several people have asked me for some type of book list for all different ages. It has taken me a bit of time to get to it, but I finally have started the process of making up my own book lists. I have begun with Preschool-1st grade. Of course, within that age category, there will be some variance to the level of readers. Some 1st graders may find some of the books to be "babyish" for reading themselves while some may find them to be right on their level. All of the books are excellent for parents to read aloud to preschoolers - 1st grade, which is very important in cultivating a love for reading in your child.
In no way am I implying that this is a complete book list. It is what I have come up with so far and from time to time I will add to it. I hope you enjoy these books and that this list helps you know what to look for when going to the library or local book stores or thrift stores. Many of these authors have several books and I have only listed a few of them. For instance, I did not list every Dr. Seuss book! Jan Brett has many good books and I listed maybe two or three of hers. Learn the authors names as well as the titles and you can recognize their books while you are looking.
Soon, I will come out with an Intermediate list and will keep going until I get all the way through High School level reading. Happy Reading!
