What Books Should Kids be Reading?
(Second in our series of recommended reading lists for children of all ages. We will publish additional lists in Education Reporter over the next few months. — Ed.)
Classic children’s books are scarcely to be found in school classrooms and libraries today, so parents must ensure that their kids are reading books that educate, absorb, and entertain in a manner that stimulates curiosity and increases the child’s eagerness to learn about the world.
The following list displays the title, year published, and author of each book. Please note that some duplication of titles may occur from last month’s list. This is part 1 of The Ultimate Reading List — Classics that Endure, which originally appeared in the June 1997 issue of Education Reporter. We will publish Part 2 in next month’s issue.
