Colet Court 7+ Reading List May we take this opportunity of giving you this list, which will, we hope, be helpful to parents visiting bookshops and libraries? Interview candidates may be invited to discuss books which they have read recently. We don’t expect boys to read all the books on this list but to choose a selection from it. These should be books that they can read comfortably by themselves. We would also suggest the reading of picture books too, seeing as the boys really enjoy looking at them, and it is this enjoyment that is key.
