BookRead-aloud books for ages 5–7
First books a child can genuinely read — patterned sentences, familiar words, and pictures that back up the text at every turn. Every word highlights as it's read aloud, so a child can follow along whether they're listening or reading themselves.
This is the stretch where listening turns into reading. Expect a lot of re-reading of favourites; that repetition is doing real work.

Reading levels in this age group
Age is about interest and reading level is about difficulty — they're deliberately separate, so a child can read a gripping book at an easier level.
