Last week I did my beginner readers list that I order when my children are just starting to read. This list is for after they can read those books. I am having my child who is beginning 2nd grade this year, read these books.
I typically order enough books so that they can read one book per day. It takes minutes to do, but if you are consistent with it, your child will become more and more proficient at reading. If they grow tired, as mine do from reading….so many words:) I will read every other page or one that has more words on it. The key is not to make it a treacherous, boring thing. Help them out, and encourage them.
Here are books that we have ordered over and over again for all of my children.
A big ball of string
Fred and ted go camping
The Berenstain bears on the moon
The Bears’ Picnic
The Bear’s Vacation
The pizza that we made
A fly went by

***please note my 8 year old brought to my attention that there were immodest bathing suits in this book. It is a cartoon drawn book but the girls are wearing bikinis.
It’s not easy being a bunny
The Hair Book
Ten Eggs in a Nest

The Very Bad Bunny
This list gives you well over a month’s worth of reading with your child. If they seem to be doing well after going through these books…..move on up to a next level. I will have a post of my favorite books to read after these ones.
Have a wonderful day!
