[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine loves Geronimo Stilton and Mercy the Pig books[/quote] Marcy the Pig is too easy of a read for a voracious reader. It’s like second grade material or even lower.[/quote] My advanced readers read it in K (though we'd been reading it aloud for years before). However there's no harm in going back and re-reading easy books, even for advanced readers. My kids re-read books that are too easy for them the same way they eat comfort food - because it's familiar and soothing. Then they dive into something hard like Wingfeather Saga (which is too much for a sensitive reader, but so good).[/quote]
