Level C read-aloud books
Guided-reading Level C is typically Kindergarten–Grade 1, around ages 5–6. Two or three lines a page and a real story with a beginning, a middle and an end. Every word highlights as it's read aloud, so a child can follow along whether they're listening or reading themselves.

Is my child on the right level?Grades and ages here are typical, not a target. A child reading a level or two either side is completely ordinary — the right book is one they can read with only a little help.
