Easy reading kindergarten

21 Kindergarten Books That Will Wow and Inspire Your Little Readers!

Kindergarten books are vitally important for early readers. The building blocks they provide as children learn to read are essential! Check out some of our favorite easy-reader books below.

Watching my oldest son’s development while he was in kindergarten was nothing short of amazing.

He began the year mesmerized by books but not at all able to read them. Yet, by the time June came around, he had his own stack of awesome books for kindergarten readers (all of which he could read fluently,) he knew exactly which stories were “just right” for him in our school library (ok, ok — so I may be his school librarian — but it’s exciting nonetheless!!), and he would stay up way past his bedtime reading with his special book light.

It was incredible. And, of course, it made my book-loving heart so, so happy.

Just as he grew, so did his love of reading. I credit so much of this love not only to great kindergarten read-alouds, but also to getting the perfect books into his hands when he began his reading journey.

When our children begin kindergarten, most of us typically have one thought in mind: my child will read this year! After all, is there anything more synonymous with kindergarten than this singular goal?

Finding the “right” kindergarten books is therefore essential. We want to give them books that will excite them, delight them, make them laugh, and boost their confidence as they begin to tackle a brand-new challenge.

So how do you know if a book is perfect for your beginning reader? What makes a great kindergarten book different from an easy chapter book? Check out these tips!

Large fonts help kindergarten readers comprehend

Believe it or not, larger fonts can make a difference for new readers! Larger fonts have been linked to a boost in decoding skills, in addition to greater fluency and enhanced comprehension. Larger text in kindergarten books is also much less intimidating to new readers, as pages inherently have more white space and fewer words. It allows children to easily see where their eyes should go next.

Simplicity is key for new readers. Why? The longer the sentence, the more confusion your child will feel. Remember — kindergarten books are for those kids who are just learning to read. That means they have not yet mastered fluency and speed, nor do they understand the nuances of punctuation. And forget about a sentence extending over a page turn — these are the things that do nothing but frustrate our new readers. Thus, short and simple is key!

Repetitive books for kindergarteners are like the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. These are the best! This type of story includes both repetitive structures and vocabulary words. Repetition in early readers allows children to master new words and skills. On their first read-through, a child may stumble and pause frequently as they sound out what they see on the page. Yet, the more frequently they read a passage, sentence or word, the more flow and fluency will improve. The best part? When fluency improves, so does confidence.

Many books for beginning readers and kindergarten books incorporate easy-to-read words. But what are those words? These early readers contain not only sight words, but also words that can be decoded easily using the rules of phonics and “chunking” strategies (ie., breaking words up into smaller components.) Decodable books slowly build a child’s knowledge of phonics, and they are incredibly important for new readers.

Illustrations in kindergarten books should not just be engaging, but they should also provide supportive, or “context” clues to the reader. This means that a great early reader contains pictures that correspond to the text, support both the plot and mood of the book, and help readers decode unknown vocabulary words.

Our list of kindergarten books will engage your new readers!

As you explore our list of awesome kindergarten books below, keep in mind that books are arranged in a general order. The easier books are at the top of the list, and the more challenging (and longer) reads are at the end.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of books do kindergarteners read?

Aside from great picture books, decodable books are fantastic for kindergarteners. Additionally, kindergarten books often include large fonts, short sentences, and pictures that provide supportive clues to the readers. Finally, the text typically contains a significant amount of repetition, often containing word families and rhyme.

What if my child is struggling to read in kindergarten?

Don’t worry! Every child is different! Some children may begin sounding out words in pre-kindergarten when they are only four years old. Others learn to read in kindergarten, typically around five or six. Some countries don’t even begin teaching kids to read until they are seven years old! The most important thing you can do is read to your child as frequently as possible. When he or she is ready, they will be sure to let you know. Children become readers at different ages, and that is a-ok!

Independent reading.

Daria Gordeeva

We continue our series of materials about reading with children. In the first article, we talked about what and how to read aloud to toddlers and preschoolers. This material will focus on older children - kids who are just learning to read, schoolchildren who have to master long lists of literature for the summer, and teenagers who are not interested in books at all.

Yulia Kuznetsova, children's writer

We asked Yulia Kuznetsova, a well-known children's writer, winner of the Big Fairy Tale and Kniguru awards, author of the Calculus manual for parents and educational books, to answer the most popular parental questions about reading. Learning to read with dinosaurs” and “Learning to read with cats”.

Contents of the article:

1. Is the love of reading inherited?
2. What if the child knows letters but is too young to learn to read (2 years old)? How not to lose interest in learning letters?
3. At what age is it better to teach reading?
4. What is the best way to teach a child to read?
5. Is reading a daily practice?
6. What books are better to offer a child for the first independent reading?
7. What if the child's desire is there, but the parent's patience is not enough?
8. Until what age should you keep reading together?
9. Should I force you to read at all? How to offer a book so that it is not a burden?
10. How do you feel about summer reading lists for schoolchildren?
11. What do you think about comics? Do you offer them to your children?
12. Should I keep a reading diary with my child? How to do it?
13. Is it possible to "draw" an older teenager (14-16 years old) into reading?
14. Julia Kuznetsova recommends. Books for schoolchildren and teenagers

Yes and no. If you have a large bookcase in your apartment and you hope that, looking at it, the child will read, then I hasten to disappoint you, most likely this will not happen. But if children constantly see the example of parents who read, then yes, this love can be transferred to them. In my course for parents who teach children to read, there is even such a task: every day you make time and sit down with a book, no matter what happens. The child, seeing how passionate you are, will soon begin to repeat it too.

In order not to lose interest, play with letters. Turn them into the same toy as, for example, a car or a doll. For example, you can play "hot-cold": you hide the letter under the pillow and ask the child to find it, saying: "Find me the letter A." You can also look for letters in individual words, for example, write large on a piece of paper DINOSAUR - and ask the child to find O in it. Or look for all the letters M on signs on the way to kindergarten.

Sculpt letters out of plasticine, make them out of pasta or carrots while you cook dinner, write them in semolina or sand, show with your body - anything to make the process fun for both child and parent.

Usually children "grow" to reading by 4-6 years. But, of course, there are exceptions: someone can already read fluently at 3, and someone at 7 is barely ready for this. I started teaching my eldest daughter to read at 4.5, and quickly realized that I was in a hurry - it was worth waiting for more. The main thing here is to follow the interest of the child, not to pressure or force. Sooner or later, everyone will ripen to this. Look at the people around: most likely, each of them can read. So worrying about being late or starting too late is definitely not worth it.

In general, I would single out the following criteria: if the child does not run away as soon as it comes to letters, does not hide from you in the closet or under the bed, but listens with interest, then you can start learning.

I divide this process into three stages: learning letters, learning syllables, and actually reading words. By the way, my manuals "Learning to read with dinosaurs" and "Learning to read with cats" are built on this principle. I came up with them, looking at my youngest son.

At the first stage, we study letters. I have already talked about how to do this in a playful way. But here are a few more examples from the manuals.

Here we invite the child to add tails and muzzles to the letters so that they turn into dinosaurs. It seems to be nothing special, just a fun game, but the kid gradually remembers the image of the letter.

Or we ask the child to complete the letters A or O, depending on what the main character, Platoshka the raccoon, wants to say.

After the letters are mastered, we slowly learn to combine them into syllables. Also in game form. For example, in this task, the baby is asked to circle all the MA syllables so that the Maiasaur can find his mother. It is important that at this moment the child has a goal - not just to repeat boring syllables, but to save someone, this immediately increases motivation.

Another example of a task for syllables is to help a velociraptor cross a field with burning lava, and to do this, circle all the bumps where the syllable BE occurs.

Finally, at the final stage, the child learns to read words. Here is an example of a task: you need to guess what the fictional dinosaurs invented by the raccoon Platoshka like to do, and to do this, first read their names. At first glance, it may seem that the assignments are too difficult for the first reading, but they all have a common ending ZAVR - the child quickly reads it, and the reading process no longer seems so difficult.

I think so. It's like a sport: it's better to do a little bit every day than to spend all Sunday exercising, and then suffer from overload and from the fact that all the muscles ache. I never get tired of repeating that reading should be a pleasure, and here it is important not to overdo it, to keep this interest.

Books for first reading must be:

• large print,
• with colorful illustrations,
• with a clear and engaging storyline
• with heroes that are memorable and close to the child.

Tatyana Russita's books are ideal for this: “But on my own!”, “One, two, three - freeze!”, “Cat Sock” and others. I also had a book-calculus "One Bite Tales" - unfortunately, it is no longer available in print, but you can buy an electronic version and invite your child to read from a tablet.

Tatyana Russita's books are ideal for the first independent reading

You can also take books that you read to your child when he was 1-2 years old - as a rule, they also have little text and large print. And this is a good option, because it creates an additional emotional connection with the book.

More often than not, we run out of patience when we are too focused on results or when we set the bar too high for our child. We want him to be able to read Tolstoy in a week after learning the letters.

My advice is not to rush the children, let them learn at their own pace. And be sure to celebrate even the smallest successes.

Let's say your child has learned the first four letters. Arrange a Memory game out of them: cut out two cards from each letter, lay them face down and compete to find a pair faster. And then celebrate it, make a cake, write these letters on it with icing - and everyone will be happy.

Depending on what we mean by joint reading. If this is reading aloud by the parent himself or reading aloud in turn, this tradition should be kept as long as the child allows you.

If we are talking about a situation where a child reads aloud to you, then it is important to find the point at which it is time to "let go" to independent reading. Sooner or later this will have to be done, because reading aloud and reading silently are completely different things.

If you are worried about whether a child learns something by reading on his own, you can unobtrusively check this with questions like “Oh, I completely forgot something, but how did it all end there?”.

It seems to me that summer and a river in the life of every child should be a must. First this, and then everything else. My son loves fishing - a hobby that is difficult to combine with reading.

In order not to completely lose the habit of reading over the summer, you can introduce a tradition of half an hour reading with the whole family. When you all sit down together and for 30 minutes everyone reads something different. At first, it may be a burden for someone, but then everyone joins in - it's checked. Especially if you offer your student something exciting. For example, for my children, I have already looked after the mystical story "The Intermediate" and the detective story "36 Keys" from the MYTH.

It was very important for me not to discourage my children's love of reading, so it was not necessary to read all the lists in a row in our family.

I would advise parents to take a list of literature and divide it for themselves into several points:

1. Something that the child can easily read by himself. For example, my son read all of Belkin's Tales with pleasure.
2. Something you can read aloud to them. So I read "Eugene Onegin" to my 12- and 15-year-old teenagers. At first they were bored, but very quickly they got involved - and we all enjoyed it immensely.
3. What you can listen to in an audio version or watch in a movie.
4. Finally, what can be read in a brief retelling.

I have great respect for the comics genre, moreover, I consider them a great way to "calculate" a child. My youngest son, for example, did a great job on Sophie and the Fantastic Animals. And how many children loved to read after comics about Emil and Margot!

It is possible, but, in my opinion, not necessary. It is more likely that visualization of reading success works with children of primary school age. For example, you can make the Bookcaterpillar, which Zhenya Katz came up with. You glue a circle, draw eyes and a mouth on it - this will be the caterpillar's head. And then cut out a few more of the same circles, write the title of the book you read on each, and gradually glue them, making the caterpillar longer and longer. You can make such bookcaterpillars for each member of the family - and compete in the amount of reading.

My eldest daughter keeps a reading diary for herself - hers is just a summary of what she has read. It's also great if the child does it for pleasure. I would not force you to keep such a diary. Moreover, in the lower grades, I sometimes filled out the reading diaries for the children myself, if they didn’t want to do it. I don't see anything wrong with that.

My course on how to make a child fall in love with reading ends at age 12. Further, of course, something is already more difficult to change. But something can be done. First, if your teen doesn't protest, try reading aloud together and discussing what you've read. Secondly, you can get interested in a book through movies and TV shows. For example, offer a book based on the popular movie Dune. Thirdly, detectives and thrillers are good at this age - you can go through them.

It seems to me that in adolescence, the most important thing is to maintain a trusting relationship with the child.

It doesn't matter if your child reads or not - after all, there are many people who, as adults, do not pick up books at all, and at the same time are quite successful. No wonder someone said that reading is a socially approved addiction. So don't put a lot of emphasis on this - it's better to just invest in your relationship.

1. Whale on the beach

"A book that takes up the topic of special children, but from an unusual angle. The main character here is an ordinary 12-year-old girl who has a secret. And this secret prevents her from being like everyone else. We don't have many books that talk about the siblings of special children and how they feel, and Whale on the Beach is one of them."

2. Music of wings

“I know that many teenagers love books written in the magical realism genre. Once I asked them why, and they told me that these books are so strange that you immerse yourself in them and want more and more all the time. That they transfer to another universe, and while you are trying to figure out how everything works in it, you begin to better understand the familiar world around.

3. Between / Gula Kamakri / Aliens

“These three novelties are mystical tales that are exciting, unusual and also transport you to other worlds.”

4. 36 keys

"A fascinating detective story for 9-12 year olds - perfect for light summer reading, just the must-have half an hour a day."

- learning to draw on water with "Ebru" paints - "Laboratory of the artist" (for children 5-7 years old)

From the moment of birth, a person continuously develops, becomes stronger, smarter, adapts to external conditions. And at each stage of development improves mental processes: speech, thinking, imagination, memory. Preschool age is characterized by increasing cognitive activity, interest in the world around us, the desire for observation, comparison, and the ability of children to realize their goals.

Visual activity using non-traditional, artistic techniques of fine art provides an opportunity for the development of creative abilities of preschoolers. The importance of this topic lies in the fact that the development of motor skills in preschool children allows you to form the coordination of finger movements, develop speech and mental activity and prepare the child for school. A child's readiness for schooling is largely determined by his sensory development.

Research conducted by psychologists has shown that most of the difficulties that children face in the course of primary education (especially in the first grade) are associated with insufficient accuracy and flexibility of perception. A child cannot develop a comprehensive idea of ​​the surrounding objective world without tactile-motor perception, since it underlies sensory cognition. It is with the help of tactile-motor perception that the first impressions about the shape, size of objects, their location in space are formed. Therefore, work on the development of fine motor skills should begin, long before entering school. Fine motor skills are precise and subtle movements of the fingers. The work of the speech and thought centers of the brain directly depends on the development of fine motor skills.

- learning to read for children 6-7 years old "Read-ka"

The program allows you to solve the problem of teaching elementary reading skills with a much greater effect, as it takes into account the individual characteristics of children, and also allows you to optimally dose the load on each child in the group.

The work is built on the principle of maximum use of the child's own cognitive activity and the consistent introduction of program material (from simple to complex). The basics of literacy are considered in the program “as a propaedeutic course in the phonetics of the native language” (according to D. B. Elkonin). The program is based on the material of the methodology created by D. B. Elkonin and L. E. Zhurova, which is a manual for teaching preschoolers to read correctly. The organization of the training was thought out in such a way that:

• provides cognitive interest and stability of voluntary attention,
• each child can participate in the process of completing assignments.

This literacy program is designed for 6-7 year olds. The main place is occupied by the work on teaching children conscious reading by syllables, developing typing skills in a single spelling mode, graphic analysis, developing phonemic hearing, as well as preventive work to prevent reading disorders (dyslexia) and writing (dysgraphia) during the subsequent education of children in primary school.

The program for preparing children for literacy provides for the development of children's attention, perception, memory, thinking, imagination, speech, as well as ways of mental activity (the ability to elementarily compare, analyze, generalize, establish the simplest cause-and-effect relationships) in the process of various activities . The development of cognitive abilities leads to a conscious attitude of children to various aspects of speech reality (sound and sign), leads to an understanding of certain patterns of their native language, and the formation of the foundations of literacy. This program stimulates the development of curiosity. It serves the development of non-speech processes and vocabulary, the practical assimilation of grammatical forms of the language.

Those. through games on land, there is a noticeable improvement in the game on the water.

- vocal training for children 6-7 years old - "Funny notes"

Singing, as the main means of education, is the closest and most accessible to children. Composer and teacher, one of the founders of the Russian vocal school A.E. Varlamov believed that if a child is taught to sing from childhood, his voice acquires flexibility and strength, which are difficult for an adult. Performing songs, children perceive music more deeply, actively express their experiences and feelings. The lyrics of the song help them understand the content of the music and make it easier to digest the melody. Singing classes have a beneficial effect on the whole child's body. Singing Contributes:

- Development of musical abilities: ear for music, modal feeling, musical memory, sense of rhythm develops;

- Development of speech: words are pronounced in a long, singsong voice, which helps to clearly pronounce individual sounds and words;

- Development and strengthening of the lungs and the entire vocal apparatus: according to doctors, singing is the best form of breathing exercises.

- Development of the emotional sphere: expressive singing allows the child to find a way out of various emotional states.

- Development of communicative qualities: singing unites children with a common mood, accustoms them to joint actions.

At the senior preschool age (5-7 years), the child's singing apparatus begins to form - the vocal cords are strengthened and the voice acquires new capabilities: articulation improves, breathing becomes stronger and longer, the intonation of the melody becomes clearer in the voice. Diagnostics in the senior groups of a preschool educational institution reveals children with a high level of development of musical abilities. These children are noticeably ahead of their peers, which is manifested in the following: in the purity of intonation, in a good voice, expressive singing, artistry, and interest in music.
