THE EASY BOOK LIST

Welcome to the 2008 temporary home of the easy book list that helps teens, ESLstudents, and adults find books that are easier to read.

A new site is under construction with more original content coming soon.

Thank you for visiting.  Please help us find more books and keep a list for now.  In the future a system for submitting your own suggestions will be put in place and the list expanded.
 
 

Click in the right column for more about the book, including reader reviews: Still using B&N web site for this information.  No money is earned from this for the easybooklist site, but I like their reviews.
