FINDING APPROPRIATE BOOKS FOR YOUR CHILD
How do you know if a book is the right reading level for your child?
         Five Finger Test
            1. Open a book to a middle page.
            2. Have your child read one page.
            3. Have your child hold up one finger for each word s/he doesn't understand.
        0 fingers - book is too easy (It's okay to read some of these books, just not ONLY easy books.)
        1-5 fingers - book is just right
        6 fingers or more - books is probably too hard
