Books

Useful for educators for finding age appropriate (and grade level) books by themes, genre, topic, character and type (picture book, chapter books, etc) Includes review of books, awards received, Lexile level and read alike suggestions presented in an easy-to-use and engaging way. The books themselves are not included in the database, this is just a guide to finding the right books. Check a local Public Library for books.

Gale Books and Authors, a reader's advisory database that provides search paths for read-alike books, and multiple booklists from award winners to community and expert picks to make finding a great read much less challenging. Readers can define search parameters and create a search as wide or narrow as they wish, whether browsing by genre, or, with the author search feature, by nationality, ethnicity, and more.
