LYnn's reading nook
A Warm Welcome!
I am so excited to share this site with you. As an educator, school psychologist, and most importantly, a grandmother, I have a desire to see children develop a love for learning through engaging children's books. Books are a major source of knowledge and can help children expand their horizons. However, walking into a library or bookstore can be overwhelming, especially when searching for the best elementary reading options. The printable lists shared on this site can help guide your selections, including preschool book recommendations and toddler book lists. You may ask, 'How were books chosen?' I made an effort to include both classic and newer books, books for boys and girls, and books about various cultures. The printable lists feature additional recommended reading not highlighted on the website, along with important book information such as number of pages and reading levels.
I encourage you to use these lists throughout the year. As I have learned with my own grandchildren, they can serve as 'wish lists' for birthday and Christmas gifts. Children can mark the books they have read and those they would like to read. The lists can help children choose books for reports or for pleasure. However you use this site, I wish you and your children many hours of happy reading!
- Lynn S. Wogamon, Ed.D.
