[quote=Anonymous][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. [b]They don’t need to practice their reading so much as take advantage of their skill to expand their knowledge and stoke their imagination.[/b] [/quote] +1[/quote]
