Hi Suzanne, Here a some great websites for finding "just right" books:
The scholastic website allows you to look up books at F&P Guided reading levels http://bookwizard.scholastic.com/tbw/viewCustomSearchForm.do?RowsPerPageOpti ons=[10%2C+50] Also, the lexile "Find a book" site is also a great tool. There are many correlation/conversion charts out there that show you the correlations between Lexile levels and F&P levels. http://www.lexile.com/findabook/ Hope this helps.
