Picture books for younger children
Birth to age 5 or 6
Illustrated books with no text at all, simple sentences or more advanced text. Includes alphabet books, counting books and books teaching concepts.
Beginning readers
Age 6 to 7 (Grades 1 and 2)
Books for very early (emergent) readers. These are illustrated books with widely-spaced print and basic, repetitive vocabulary to help kids who are new to reading develop and practice their skills.
Easy-to-read stories
Age 7 to 8 and older (Grades 2 to 3)
Easy-to-read stories are for children who are ready to start reading chapter books. These books have some illustrations (often in black and white) and use a larger print size than chapter books for older readers.
Picture books for older children
Age 7 and up (Grade 2 and up)
Children love to be read to, even when they've outgrown the simpler picture books. These books have more text, tell more complex stories and require a longer attention span.
Fiction for older children
Age 9 and up (Grade 4 and up)
Chapter books for older children.
Children's graphic novels
All ages
Graphic novels and comics for children of all ages.
Children's nonfiction
