How
to choose a book
Is it too hard?
The 5 finger test is an easy way to find out if a book is too hard. Read any page in the
book. Each time you don't know a word, hold up one finger. If you have five fingers up by the end of the page - the book is too hard.
You can also use you AR level to help select a book that is on the right reading level for you. Once you find books that you can read
you must select those that you WANT to read!
Am I interested in this story?
To do this read what the publisher has placed on the book jacket to tell you a bit about
the story. Finally, if you start the book and don't like it -- DON'T
READ THE BOOK.
Now that I can read -- I want to read REAL BOOKS!
