			<description><p>Check this thread from a few days ago.&#160; I know similar questions have been asked recently, so you could search for more threads, too.</p>

<p>The SCM early readers booklists are great.&#160; They make great read alouds with preschoolers, but many of them are good for beginning readers as well.</p>
<p>AO has this list that we've enjoyed many books from:</p>
<p>Frog and Toad readers by Arnold Lobel<br /> Little Bear readers by Else Holmelund Minarek<br /> George and Martha series by James Marshall<br /> Frances books by Russell Hoban<br /> Henry and Mudge series by Cynthia Rylant<br /> Free online beginning readers by <a href="http://www.mainlesson.com/author.php?author=treadwell" rel="nofollow">Harriette Taylor Treadwell</a></p>
<p>The 1000 Good Books list has a good selection of easy reader ideas as well. (Scroll down a bit on this page)</p>

<p>Enjoy!&#160; But watch out, now I can't get my kids to go to sleep at night because they go to bed with a pile of books!&#160; &#60;grin&#62;&#160;</p>

			<description><p>Hey All,</p>
<p>We have a 5 year old emerging reader and are looking for some good books for him to build upon the skills he's learned this year. He's exceeded his phonics program and is ready to start on books that have some substance and value! Any suggestions and thoughts would be much appreciated. Thanks so much and blessings!</p></description>
