Books Your Child Can Read**



Books Your Child Can Read

(Series name in parentheses)

Lexile Scores: “The Lexile Framework for Reading is simple: if we know how well a student can read and how hard a specific book is to comprehend, we can predict how well that student will likely understand the book.” If you are wondering whether your child can read a book independently, go to and type the title in the “Quick Book Search” in the upper right corner. You can also use this website to find other books that are in the same Lexile range as one he or she may have been successful reading. (If you have books you’d like to add to the list, or ones that did not seem to match, please let Tina Errthum know.)
