When it comes to choosing books, a struggling reader needs to feel successful (we all do!) in order to hang in there and keep trying, so don't expect him or her to read books at a frustration level, even if you think they should be at that level. Attitude, believing that you can do it, is at least half the battle in learning how to read.
Here is an easy way to find books at your child's reading level using Scholastic.com.
- Start here and click on Book Wizard.
- Type in the name of a book that your child can read and understand without much help.
- When that book pops up, it will have a grade level and a link that says "Book Alike, find similar books." Click on that button.
- Now you will see lots of book choices at that same level.
- Make a list of what looks interesting and find them at the library.

Happy Reading!
