Here are four book lists compiled by familyrapp to help you choose books for your children either for you to read to them or for them to read to themselves. Sometimes it is quite difficult to decide which age category a book should go into. Many children, who have just learnt to read, enjoy reading books from a younger age-range as they are easier.. Furthermore children can always enjoy a story being read to them even though their reading is not yet good enough to tackle that story on their own. They can then read it to themselves later on. Within the older age ranges, it may be that a child is quite capable of reading any book but the subject matter may not be relevant to them and conversely a book which has interesting subject matter can put some children off if it is perceived to written for a younger age group. Therefore don't just scrutinize the book lists meant for your child's age range, see what is on offer in the other lists.
The lists do not have every good book written by one particular author. We have instead tried to suggest a variety of authors. If your child finds one author especially stimulating then you know to search for more books by the same person (we can always help on that front!).
Finally if you think that we have missed out a particularly good book, then we would be very happy to add it to our list. Just email us at admin@familyrapp.com
