Leveled Book List (K-2)
Having students read books at their independent reading
level is a great way to practice the skills and strategies that
they are learning in school. This list is meant to serve as a
resource for parents to help find books that your child can
read independently. Find out from your child’s teacher
what level would be just-right for him/her. You will see
that many of the books are part of different series. Series
reading is a great way to hook reluctant readers. If they
find a series they enjoy and really hooks them… watch out,
they will become reading machines! All of the books listed
should be easily found at your local library or book store.
Happy Reading!

word that starts like ____”.)
