[quote=Anonymous]The only one that comes to mind that would approach that level is Just-So Stories by Kipling, with a Lexile of 1190. Its prose, while dense, is very beautiful - with a lyrical quality. I highly recommend reading it aloud with your child. My suggestion is to focus primarily on enjoyment, with a secondary focus on literary merit, and forget about Lexile ratings. A third grader who is reading at a Lexile level of 1200 will be able to read anything they want or need to. They don’t need to practice their reading so much as take advantage of their skill to expand their knowledge and stoke their imagination. [/quote]
