I've rediscovered a site that lets you get a wide variety of books at all levels. (Actually a teacher at our school, Holly Groff, reminded me of it). You can plug in grade levels, difficulty levels for each grade (easy, on or challenging) and genre. Within the genre you can also select types of books (science fiction, history, mystery, drama, short stories, poetry, etc.). Teachers can then "submit" their request and a list of books is generated. This list can be printed for yourself, the student, or given to parents when they would like some appropriate level book suggestions. There are even some multiple choice "quizzes " that go along with some of the books. I've viewed the sample, but haven't looked into that aspect too deeply. This site is associated with Sylvan Learning. Check it out and let me know what you think.
