Reading Ladders

            Reading Ladders
            By:Abigail

    In library we have been working on our very own reading ladders. Most of you are now wondering what a reading ladder is so I will tell you. A reading ladder is a tool most good readers use to find books they like. Lets say you read a book on pandas and you want to find more books about pandas. So now is when you go to a reading ladder. First you find a reading ladder about pandas or the topic of your choice. Then you start from the bottom and make you way up the list of books.
    The bottom book is the essayist, and the higher you get on the reading ladder the more complicated the books get. At school we have been making reading ladders on the topic of our choice. I chose mine to be on the author Mary Downing Hahn. We are required  to read at least five books off of our ladder.
    What topic would be on your ladder?
