These book recommendations are for level one readers, and they are curated to help your child prepare for the next year and stay on grade level. I used many of these with my own children. Some of these are no longer at the library and you may have to look on Amazon, but it is worth it.

The Berenstein Bears in the House of Mirrors, by Stan and Jan Berenstein
Look What I Can Do, by Jose Aruego

My Class, by Lynn Salem

Reading Matters
As a writer, I believe deeply in literacy. The love of reading begins at a young age, and the ability to travel to different worlds, cities, and even moments in history is what fuels the imagination. I make book pillows for teachers each year, and the thing they’re most excited about is receiving new and interesting books for their classrooms.
A lot of kids simply lack the confidence to read and push past their mistakes. But that’s part of the process. It’s the same reason I push myself to learn other languages — for the challenge. It’s how we grow and get better. If you can read, you can learn just about anything.
More books posting soon.
