Queen of Angels 2018 Summer Reading List Kindergarten – Grade 1 Catch the Reading Bug! Summer reading allows children to choose whatever book they want which helps instill a love of reading for recreation. Kids who read for fun often out-perform students who don’t read. Therefore, we encourage all students at Queen of Angels to stay active in their reading over the summer. This reading list is designed to be a guide for families to discover and identify age appropriate books to enjoy together. The books on the list are available at public libraries or local bookstores. Please, remember to look for other books by the same authors if the suggested book is not available. Aliki. A Play’s the Thing Asch, Frank. Any title Bloom, C.P. The Monkey Goes Bananas Bogan, Paul.
