Erin's Booklist

Kindergarten Year

A handful of these have been "shared reads", where Erin and I alternate reading chapters aloud to each other. The bulk have been independently read, and most have been read at least twice. The list isn't exhaustive, as I didn't start keeping track until Christmas-time, and have no doubt forgotten many. I've omitted non-fiction, picture books, easy readers and the like in the interest of bandwidth.

Please note that this is a list of things she has read, not a recommendation on my behalf. The quality of the writing in the books on this list varies immensely.
