And if you’re looking for even more book suggestions, see our summer reading list from last year!

School is out for the summer (or will be soon) and for most kiddos, this means sleeping in, playing in the sun, and forgetting everything learned during the schoolyear. This is where summer reading lists come into play. Most schools assign summer reading, but if you want to help your child develop a love for books, leisurely reading is a must! We’ve compiled a variety of age-appropriate literature, so whether you’ve got a bookworm or a reluctant reader on your hands, there’s a book here that your child is sure to love. And maybe this list will remind you of some of your favorite books from when you were younger and inspire you to give them another read, too!

Preschool/Kindergarten

These stories are full of fun pictures and colorful characters for the little ones who are just learning to read. Delightful to read together, or solo, these books will keep young readers excited and engaged.
