http://readingandwritingproject.com/resources/book-lists-classroom-libraries-and-text-sets-for-students/current-classroom-libraries.html

This is an AMAZING SITE!!!  Get tonnes of lists of books by levels.  Go to:  (on right menu)  Current Booklist Spreadsheets   Below is a list of lists!!!  Each document has a list of topical books and their levels.  So, if you're teaching Civil Rights, for example,  you can find easy to read books for the little ones AND the big ones smile  I printed off the list of fiction primary series to take with me to the library next visit.  Someone has done a lot of work here and I'm getting that nerdy sweaty palms thing just thinking about how much I'm going to use the info.  (BTW, I used their assessment tools this morning to determine where my son was at - easy to use....and I printed off their comprehension assessments, too...I'll be using it more in teaching though, rather than assessment...so much to discover on this site)

Thank you for posting this.  Wow doesn't even get close to what this really is.  This is a lot of someone's time.  What an amazing resource.  I love book lists and this is definitely getting bookmarked for future reference.

Can you explain the levels and the meanings?  I am not familiar with these.  It looks like they go A-Z?  They must represent a grade level?  I am not sure.

This will give you a better picture. http://readingandwritingproject.com/resources/assessments/benchmarks-for-student-progress.html   (from the same site)

It gives you a view of what classroom teachers shoot for.

Ooh historical fantasy and historical fiction look like things my kids will love! Thank you! It took me a whole 3 minutes to determine that is their names for living books!  LOL
The sight is heavily Americanised but still definitely worth a look. Printing the list to take along to the library is a great idea. Being lazy I might just open the list on iPad while I have the library catalogue open in front of me and order them all for later pickup in groups of 10 or by topic..... It could take hours to find them all otherwise.
The levels AZ are clearly going to be too easy for all lout early readers, in fact those levels are too low for my non early readers too. But it gives a good idea on where to start from.

I think the a-z correlates with the RAZ levels. Once they reach level Z they should be competent adult readers.

Korrale4kq,
Do you know how RAZ levels relate to the Fountas & Pinnell levels?
Thanks!

They are very similar... But now that I look it seems RAZ only goes to 5th grade. I thought it ended at middle school.

The books for the link above go all the way to 8th grade (or adult) reading level.

Thats why I think they are a little too easy. Th reality is that by 5th great levels should be gone and kids should be able to read at adult level. Please not e that adult level IS NOT university level! Adult level is just good basic reading and understanding so they should be able to read the newspaper and a recipe and understand most of what they read.
To extend a child beyond those levels you need to read old fashioned classics from the fairy tales up to the novels, or work up through the fantasy novels ( Harry potter to the hobbit to lord of the rings) basically it's a conscious selecting of books to increase reading comprehension, stamina and vocabulary. Raiding levels as such don't usually include this reading development because they consider a lower level as fluent enough to cope with what life throws at you.
Each reading system will end at the equivalent of level Z or (number 30 for PMs) at a slightly different age. Over here its age 12 or when they hit high school they want them finished by. Th reality is most get their by grade 5/6 a year or 2 early. My kids did it by age 7 and 8 and it looks like Jaykob might get there by age 6. They were not particularly early readers just dedicated.

RazKids is great for building the fundamental blocks for reading. My ESL students really learn from RazKids through the audios. However, I do agree that RazKids is less challenging compared to other websites I have used with my students. So far my favorite would have to be Beestar as they provide really great stories. My students are constantly challenged with the questions and it helps me as a teacher to see where their strengths/weaknesses are for reading comprehension.
