10 Books for Kindergarten Readers

Here's a list of my eldest's favorite books THAT SHE COULD READ by the end of Kindergarten.

​Note: she still needed help with some of the words, but she could recognize and read the majority of them. We read these books aloud.

Me Too!

Big Shark Little Shark

I Was So Mad

Little Critter and the Level 1 series of Step Into Reading books seemed to be winners. When I'm looking for books for her to read, I try to keep them limited targeted at 1 to 2 shorter sentences on a page.

Tooth Fairy's Night

Green Green Garden

The Tooth Fairy's Night and A Green, Green Garden are at the harder end of her reading level. There's less repetition of the same words. Granted, she did enjoy Green, Green Garden because of the color words.

Pizza

Cat and Mouse

Picnic

Puddles

The collection of books above can be hard to come by. I HIGHLY recommend them. EG first came home with them from her teacher's library. We got our copies from a homeschooling friend with kids of similar ages. I was shocked she parted with them. They are funny and cute, high on the repetition side. 

Big and Little

Got to be honest, this book is the first book EG ever read -- and I'm pretty sure it was more like she memorized it.

At least she did originally.

Now I know that she can read because she struggles with the last page.

​I hope this list helps you teach your little learner to read. Remember to keep a high volume of repeating words. The more practice they get recognizing the same words, the faster they'll memorize them and be ready to move on to new words.
