Hi all,

About a week or so ago... maybe two, someone put together some great thoughts about 
lexile levels and book choices.  I thought that I had saved it....apparently 
not...must have been too excited for Spring Break.  I checked the archives, but I 
couldn't locate anything that looked familiar.

A thumbnail sketch of the post questioned why we worry so much about lexile levels 
when kids are reading for enjoyment. Popular adult books have lexile levels that 
are not at our levels.  It was just the comment I needed when putting together 
recommendations for our One School, One book (or One Author) program.

I would like to cite the posting and would like to share some of the adult book 
lexiles as well as some others.

Does anyone have that posting?
Does anyone know where I can easily find lexile levels for other adult books?  I 
know titlewave have some.

Thanks in advance.  This is the last week day of my Spring Break.... so I'm off to 
play.  But if I get a response, I'll post a hit.

This is such a wonderful source of helpful/necessary support.
Readingly yours,
Chris Evans
