recommended books

1© 2013 NACD - The National Association for Child Development • 549 25th Street, Ogden UT 84401 • 801.621.8606 • www.nacd.org

The following list contains books that are categorized by developmental age level as well as genre. The “developmental age” refers to the appropriateness of both content and reading level for that age.

The book titles included here have been compiled from various other lists. Inclusion on this list does not mean that NACD has reviewed and endorsed the content of a particular book. Parents must determine the appropriateness of content of any book for their individual child.

You and your child can choose books both for shared reading (you read a page to them, they read a page to you) and for independent reading. For independent reading, be sure to choose a book that does not have challenging vocabulary—something they can move through quickly and enjoy. For more challenging content, consider shared reading or providing audio books that they can read along with as they listen.

Age groups:

• Primary—includes Pre-K through 2nd grade

• Elementary—includes 3rd-5th grade

• Tween—includes 5th-8th grade

• Young Adult—includes 7th-12th grade +

When determining which age group your child fits into, consider not only age, grade, and reading level, but also developmental level and maturity. There will sometimes be crossover between categories, especially for older “Elementary” and younger “Tween.”

Within the age groups, this list organizes books into the following genres:

• PictureBooks

• ClassicFiction

• ContemporaryFiction

• Biographies

• Hi-Lo(highinterest,lowreadinglevel)(Note:Thisisforlowlevelreaderswhoareolderandthereforeneedamorematurecontentthanthebeginningreaders.)

• GraphicNovels

Please note that this is a dynamic list. We will update the list periodically.
